Did you know... Ctrl+F does a quick find in the current document? - #066
The standard keyboard shortcut for finding text in most applications is Ctrl+F. In Visual Studio, this kicks off a Quick Find in the current document.
Quick Find will pre-populate the find what text with whatever text is selected in the editor or the word that the cursor is currently on.
Additionally, this find and replace window is actually a tool window (not a dialog), meaning that you can dock it somewhere and type in the editor with it opened.

Actually, it doesn't necessarily do a Current Document search. The "Look In" list will automatically fill with the selection you made during your last search. I wish it would automatically default to Current Document though.Anonymous
