Hi Rob,
You hit it oin the head! I hadn't set any shortcuts for the
EditDelete Standard Action, but Borland did and once I took it out the
delete key worked as it should, thanx for the tip!

Have you assigned "Del" as the keyboard shortcut for your "Delete"
standard action? That's probably the problem. I think you can solve it by
removing that keyboard shortcut from the action.
If you have a menu item associated with the action, then to make the menu
display the keyboard shortcut, change the caption at run time like this:
DeleteMenu.Caption := 'Delete'#9'Del';
The tab character is what moves the shortcut text to the other side of the
menu item.
