yes ... for me it's a bug ... the key release at least must not be
generated, during the key repetition.

so with a code like that: you will be able to catch the key.

Private $aKeys As New Integer[]

Public Sub Form_KeyPress()
  If $aKeys.Exist(Key.Code) Then Return
  Print "press" & Key.Text
  $aKeys.Add(Key.Code)

End

Public Sub Form_KeyRelease()

  If $aKeys.Exist(Key.Code) Then
    $aKeys.Remove($aKeys.Find(Key.Code))
    Print "Release" & Key.Text
  Endif


End


Benoit ?
