In VB6 there was a Last Position in the popup menu that took you back in the
IDE to the last line that you were working on.  Is there an equivalent in
VS2005?

Thanks for info in advanced,

Have you tried "Navigate Backward" and "Navigate Forward" on the Standard
Toolbar in VS 2005, they're also under the View menu. Which actually keep a
history of where you've been.

Jay,

I did find Navigate Back/Forward in the view menu, but it is not in my
standard toolbar.  Maybe it is because I have a VB6 style for the IDE.  Is
there any way to put the Navigate menus in the popup menu?

Thanks,

WayneM

Try using the Keyboard shortcut Ctrl+- (That's Control plus the Minus
Key on the qwerty keyboard, not on the numeric keypad).
