Ctl-Alt-Del is "Control"-"Alt" (Option)- Fn>"Delete" on a Mac portable's keyboard.

You can also use Microsoft's utility to remap a del key on the keyboard as this is what the issue is. The utility is called remapper. It is located here:

You can also use a Windows USB keyboard and use the keys natively. This is normally what I do. But I also have a crap load of Windows Keyboards laying around.

For more information on using a MacBookPro with Boot camp and WIndows see this article(http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1167) and this article (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1220).
