Solution 1

I just tried it:

VB

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(sender As System.Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyDown
    If e.Control And e.KeyCode = Keys.R Then
        Console.WriteLine("YES!")
    End If
End Sub

And it worked exactly as I expected.
So what am I doing differently from you?
