When I worked with TDBEdits too, I had the same problem. I also
created a bug-report (0001917).
But until now it where ignored (i don't know).
If you fix it on your source look at the DBEdit-intern keyDown-event.

And what are you using in place of Tdbedits?

Now, delete key is working.

I find the line in the TDbedit keyDown-Event, that turn off the value
of delete, Like Janh said. And so, Marked it.

Dont know if it will bring me another problem.

But now, dont have to find ways to explain to my users,  why only in
my system, that key dont work.

I decided to handle all the data-sensitve "thing" on my own. so I use
only TEdit and other components for entering data. if data is chaged I
generate statements.
maybe there is more to code but I think it's better. exactly designed
statements/queries may have a better performance. and you can only get
that data you want (i.e. not the hole query (thousands of datasets)
but only the visible piece like the view of a listview).

although there was/is a bug with datefields on firebird-db and zeos-
lib. and with own handling I worked around this bug. ;-)
