John,

Open the options dialog from the menu and under Environment -> Keyboard
make sure use VB6 mappings
are selected.

The help says it does work that way, but it isn't working for me.  I
could swear it was in the past though.

Ah, I didn't understand what you were describing.  So it doesn't work
that way in VS.Net?  It does in VS6.

Shft F2 is supposed to take you to the object under the cursor (for
editing, not "stepping" in debug).  So if I am in functionA and am
writing the text MyObj.MyMethod, I place the cursor over .MyMethod and
hit Shft-F2 and the editor moves the focus to that method.  It is a
quick and easy way to go look at the code, open the module etc.

Um, if you're already in a method of the object, why do you need to hit
shift+F2?  And is this VS.Net or VS 6?

In Access placing the insertion pointer in a method of an object and
hitting shft-F2 takes you to that method of that object (to the code).
It actually takes you to anything, variable etc.  According to the help
file "shortcut keys" this is supposed to work in the Visual Studio
editor as well, and I could swear that I have used it, but I am not
getting it to work now.  Is this supposed to work the same way as in the
Access VBA editor?
