uh... why don't you just do,

If Keyhit(*ctrl's scancode*) and Keyhit(*S's scancode*)
SaveScreenShot()
endif

?

thats what the code above is but you have to hit them at the exactly same time

try using keydown instead, see if that makes a difference.

something like this?

global CtrlTimer#
global SkeyTimer#

if keyhit(ctrl) CtrlTimer = 1
if CtrlTimer>0.01 CtrlTimer = CtrlTimer - .01; or a variable to simulate 1sec

if keyhit(key_s) SkeyTimer = 1
if CtrlTimer>0.01 SkeyTimer = SkeyTimer - .01

if CtrlTimer>0 and SkeyTimer>0
SaveScreenshot()
endif

This

if CtrlTimer>0 and SkeyTimer>0 
SaveScreenshot() 
endif

should read:

if CtrlTimer>0 and SkeyTimer>0 
SaveScreenshot()
CtrlTimer = 0
SkeyTimer = 0 
endif

or you will get a LOT of screenshots.

Why not simply:

If (KeyDown(29) Or KeyDown(157)) And KeyHit(31)
  SaveScreenshot()
EndIf

As you have to hit them at the exactly same time

no, not really. Keydown will report the key being pressed as long as it is pressed.
