What shell are you using? Korn is Esc - I think? But it has been awhile. I use BASH so I hit the UP key. Look at you shell doc in any event

Thanks James!
I finally solved my question!
just added the following lines to the .profile file,

EDITOR=vi
export EDITOR
HISTFILE=$HOME/sh_histfile; export HISTFILE
HISTSIZE=50; export HISTSIZE
