How do I use the PC 'delete' key when using VirtualBox on OS X, running a Windows XP guest?

I tried every combination I could think of!

So you use a Mac keyboard? Which keyboard layout? Does fn + backward delete work for you? – slhck Aug 20 '11 at 9:37
It's the macbook pro keyboard (UK). I think that's done it actually, thanks! – chrism2671 Aug 20 '11 at 9:39

On your Mac keyboard, try fn-backward delete (⌫)

This would be the equivalent of a forward delete (⌦)

.. or just a "delete" on a Windows keyboard.
