It's just really awkward. Especially when I want to cancel the action.
Ctrl+Esc really doesn't work that well. You just end up popping up the
start menu. Funnily enough I did implement a very similar system in one of
my applications a couple of years ago and then took it straight back out
again because of the Ctrl+Esc issue.
Also when I'm working/debugging I might not always catch the name of the
file I was looking at, (there's a good chance it wasn't my code to begin
with) I just want to tab-through until I see the code I was looking at
before.
(I also liked being able to keep my finger on ctrl and do 'C', 'Tab', 'V' to
copy a line to another file.)
But yeah, thanks for the info. I'm now back in Ctrl-Tab heaven. ;)
(For anyone else looking for this you have to reassign (shift+)ctrl+tab back
to
Window.(Previous/Next)DocumentWindow.)

I tend to agree - the VS 8.0 CTRL-TAB thing sucks. VS6.0 was perfect - very
quick, intuitive. The VS 8.0 is really clunky. I'll bet that was put in
there because of complaints on how slow it is to cycle through the documents
using CTRL-TAB.
re: accidentally hitting the CTRL-ESC instead of CTRL-TAB, I use CTRL-TAB a
million times a day and never have that problem.
Cheers,
Chris
