this is my code…

var myListener:Object = new Object();  
Key.addListener(myListener);  
myListener.onKeyDown = myOnKeyDown;  
Accessibility.updateProperties();  
function myOnKeyDown()  
{  
if (Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL) && Key.getCode() == 55)  
{  
trace(“right”);  
}  
}

here i used the key 7 along with the control key to check a specified action.  
wen i am trying to use some other keys instead of key 7, it’s not working…  
like when i am using key A or something like that, the function is not working in a proper way…  
can anybody help me…
