Is there a shortcut for switching from form view to design view

[Beepa]

I have been going nuts trying to find a shortcut for switching from form view
to design view. There is a shortcut to switch from design view to form view
(F5) but I hae not found one to go the other way. I am building lots of forms
and it is driving me crazy! The only way I see is to go to the drop down menu
and then design view happens to be at the bottom of the list.
(This may seem like not much to some people but when it is so simple one way
and then confluted the other way time after time it wears on me!)
I cannot see why microsoft would make navigation among views less
simplified? In 2003 version each mode had an icon on the bar just click and
your there. The drop down menu if you hit it in the wrong place doesn't
expand and is a real pain.
Anyway so much for my whinning if anyone has a solution please post it for
me.
Thank you,

Beepa,
when the form is open you can use Alt + V + D
when the form is closed in the database window you can use Alt + D
