Visual Studio IDE - basic and useful shortcuts

CTRL + F  --  search string/text

ESC  --- change focus [for example, after you found the string and wanted to read the definition. You need to press this escape key first to change focus.

F12 - Go to definition

SHIFT + F12 - Find all the references

F8 --- Go to next results [for example, after you find all the references, you want to browse every reference one by one. F8 will help you to move to next one.]

CTRL + plus  ----- Navigate forward

CTRL + minus   ------ Navigate backward

Of course, there are more useful shortcuts, but these are the most simple and basic ones!!

 

Note: In VS 2010, actually there is a new one, CTRL + ,   which one is similar as CTRL + F, but more powerful. Have a try on it.
