Dear Kirun,

write the code in key down event of form rather than key press event. Also, make sure KeyPreview propery of the form is set to true.

The following code displays a message box when you press delete key.

private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode as Integer, _
Shift as Integer)
If KeyCode = vbKeyDelete then
MsgBox "Delete key is pressed.", _
vbExclamation
End If
End Sub




Hope this will work

All the best.

Kishore.
