Several methods

1. Use GetKeyboardState API
2. Use GetAsyncKeyState API
3. Use a keyboard hook: SetWindowsHookEx API

thanks... the 1st resolved my problem
and it's importanted put these function:

Public Function DetectSelectedKey(Key As Long) As Boolean
    If GetKeyState(Key) < 0 Then
        DetectSelectedKey = True
    Else
        DetectSelectedKey = False
    End If
End Function

the objective of these funcion it's for tell us if the key is pressed.
and for see if any key(in these case we don't care what key was pressed) was pressd, use the keypress event. but the special keys(like arrow keys and the others special keys) don't work, then use the keydown event with 1 boolean variable for call it 1 time
