Try:

Code: Select all

    Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown
        If e.Control And e.Alt And e.KeyCode = Keys.F1 Then
            MsgBox("Ctrl+Alt+F1 for Help")
        End If

    End Sub

not working

[Dummy1912]

seems weird, but when we use a character with control and alt it works fine
but when we use it with f1 its not working

Code: Select all

If e.Control And e.Alt And e.KeyCode = Keys.F1 Then
            MsgBox("Ctrl+Alt+F1 for Help") ' not working
        End If

Code: Select all

If e.Control And e.Alt And e.KeyCode = Keys.G Then
            MsgBox("Ctrl+Alt+G for Help") ' working  :darnit; 
        End If

do someone has a clue??

I'm not sure why it's not working for you but the code I posted works fine for me.

Are you capturing keys anywhere else within your application?

no, just on the main form.
