[Re-Titled by Moderator]
It's the one labeled delete.
To forward-delete, hold down the fn key and press delete.

Not all MacBook Pros have a key that's marked Delete. My MacBook has the Backspace arrow. In some cases, you have to Fn+Backspace (when typing, for instance), in other cases you have to Cmd+Backspace (when deleting a file from the desktop).
The Delete key opn Mac does and doesn't act the same way as the Backspace and Delete keys on a PC. Normally hitting Delete on a Mac will work as a Backspace key. To Forward Delete, normal action of the Delete key on a PC, you have to hold down the fn key and then hit the Delete key. To Delete a File or something once selected sometimes the Mac Delete keys Deletes it and at other times it does nothing other then give you a Chime/Sound no matter what other key you hold down. This is the case with deleting files in Finder. As in Windows the delete key actually deletes whatever is selected all the time.
Good Luck
The delete key is at the top right 2nd button down.
There isn't a key maked delete.
the corect combination for delete is: keep press fn key +left-pointing arrow.

Not necesarily. On mine the delete key has a left-pointing arrow.
On older MBP's its the backspace key, its in the upper see the backspace arrow. Use as descdribed above. On newer MBPs the key is labeled delete. Don't worry, you can delete just as easily as you did before.
On MacBook Pro : Just hold cmd button (right or left button to space) and click backspace. Hope this work for you as well.
great tip, thanks

Apple should not assume we know it when we buy it should they
