The only way is to program the key-trigger with its standard function.

key-next-item

begin

    next_item;
end;

See posting #16062. What's more effort ? i. supressing what you don't want
ii. or enabling what you do want

i. put 'null;' in all the key-triggers you don't want. ii. put 'null;' in key-others at form level, and re-activiate

     those you do want using the appropriate built-in procedure.
