you wont be ble to do this with watir at the moment. THe reason is that right now watir doesnt support all the event info on a key press ( most of the time watir works fine)
There is some stuff on the wiki that begins to address this - http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Possibilities+For+New+Events+in+Watir I have some more code that may help, but I dont know what state its in.
