"Does not work" is not informative enough. What exactly the problem is? And what is "Me" here? A form? Why closing it in this strange way? If this is a modal window, it's closed by itself; you need to have CancelButton.

This is not a good way to close a window. If you show a window as modal (via ShowDialog), you need to use CancelButton; and the form will close itself on escape:

And if the form is not modal, you should never close it with Escape, as it will violated expected UI style and can cause loss of user's work, by apparent reasons.
