Stupid Visual Studio Trick, Part 1

Right click on a method, select Go To Definition, click fancy back button on mouse. Neat huh? Forward works too. If you don’t have a mouse with back and forward buttons, you’re missing out.

Cool trick. I first tried it in C++/CLR and nothing happened. Then I remembered that C++ is a second class citizen these days and nothing works. I switched over to C# and voila!

Thanks for the tip.

I have had the displeasure of working in VB.net lately and it doesn't support the back/forward buttons either. ;(

Argh. This only works in C#, not in VB.NET.

Why MS, why are you doing this to us?
