I have solution opened in Visual C# 2008 Express IDE.

I want to locate any cs file quickly by its name:

type file name or first letters of it, eq. myclass.cs

After that some instance of file should highlighted in Solution Explorer
window or opened for edit.

Any idea how to use this or similar "locate file by typing" functionality
in C# express ?

Hi,

Try Ctrl+ / , it will give focus to the Find control in the toolbar, then
type in open your_file_name

Click to expand...

When Solution Explorer window is active, I pressd Ctrl+/
entered existing filename
pressed enter

Solution explorer window only flashes, nothing happens.
