You have to set KeyPreview property to True for the keyboard events of form to trigger.

 

[izzyq8]

Private Sub Form1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyPress
        If e.KeyChar = Microsoft.VisualBasic.ChrW(Keys.V) Then
            MsgBox("woot")

        End If

    End Sub

tried this but when i push the letter v still no luck
i set the key preview to true in the properties of the form

Perhaps try this:

Private Sub Form1_KeyUp(...) Handles Me.KeyUp
  If e.KeyCode = Keys.V Then MessageBox.Show("woot")
End Sub
