First of all set your forms KeyPreview property to True, then trap the
KeyDown or KeyUp events and find out.

OHM/Tom,

There is an easy way to find out if Ctrl is held down when you press a
button.

In the Click event of the button, you can see if the Ctrl key is
currently pressed down with the following code .

If btnYourButton.ModifierKeys = Keys.Control Then
MsgBox("The control key is currently pressed down.")
End If

I misread it, I thought he wanted it trapped anywhere on the form.

Better:

If (Control.ModifierKeys And Keys.Control) <> 0 Then
