Sometimes I F5 when I meant to just compile.

Usually such a mistake is followed by a "noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" and quiet resignation to wait for my app to build and get to the point under the debugger where I can stop it. 

So here's a super-handy tip for larger projects I learned last week: You can cancel a build using CTRL+Break.

    Sometimes I Alt+F4 instead of Alt+F5. Thats generally followed by cries of anguish, invocations of gods and frothing at the mouth....it could also be the coffee.

    Whoa, thanks I didn't know about this and actually bit myself quite a few times with F5 as well :)

    I assigned the "Build.BuildSelection" command in VS2005 to the F12 key.  Now, I use that button constantly to check the build state of the current project in the solution.

    Only problem with Ctrl-break is on our project we have cpu intensive build tasks, and ctrl-break doesn't respond during those build tasks. Ahh well :)
