Hi All,

Ctrl + PgDn shortcut does not work in Visual Studio 2008 Express. Is
this a bug or am I missing something??

Thanks,
Sundar

I do not know what it should do, but for me, it moves the cursor to the
bottom of the current window.
 
Yes, it is bound to the Window.NextTab at the Global level (i.e. your tool
windows if you have let's say the Solution Explorer, Class View, and the
Resource View set up as tabs in one tool window then the Ctrl+PgDn will
cycle those tabs).

However, the Ctrl+PgDn is also bound to the Edit.ViewBottom command for the
editor. For the editor tabs you need to use Ctrl+Tab.

This is not a bug. This is the default behaviour with VS2003 and VS2005
(most likely VS2002 as well but haven't checked).
 
So is it possible for me to rebind the Ctrl + PgDn and Ctrl+PgUp for
Window.NextTab and Window.PreviousTab respectively??
 
You can go into the Tools / Options menu item and in the Environment /
Keyboard option either change the Keyboard Mapping Scheme to VB6 or just
remove the Edit.ViewBottom and Edit.ViewTop mappings.
 
Kelly,

I rebound the Ctrl + PgDn and Ctrl + PgUp as suggested by you. But it
still does not work.

Thanks,
Sundar
