In vb.6 in design time, there is a View Menu command
called "Last Position" that allows you to quickly
navigate to a previous location in your code. This is a
very useful feature if you have to go back and forth
between several places quickly without setting up split
windows, horizontal/vertical windows, etc.

Is there something comparable in vb.net

Thanks

The's nothing exactly the same although there are loads of easy ways to
navigate around your code - one of the similar things I find myself doing
all the time (in C# but it works the same in VB.NET) is to use the bookmarks
feature of the Visual Studio IDE (look on the Edit menu under Bookmarks) -
there are keyboard shortcuts to add bookmarks and navigate between the
bookmarks - this is really handy for skipping between two locations in the
same code file - it doesn't work between different code files but that's
normally not an issue as it's easy to swap between windows.

Hope this helps
 
Thanks Steve.

I like this better, because it gives me control to decide
whether I want to go somewhere or not. It really makes
it much easier to navigate.

View | Navigate Backward does what you want. There's also a toolbar button
with a dropdown similar to the Back button in IE.
