What I'm doing is making a database where the user has many fields. They can
move them and grab them and I would like them to be able to delete spurious
fields. I think this may hinder the user but italso may be a feature. :-)

I'll try your suggestion.

How do you find out the number of a key when pressed? 

All the best
