After "Go to Definition", is there a command to return to where you came from?

You can go to the last place you navigated to by doing CTRL+-

(That's the control key and the "minus" or "dash" key.)

Tip by Brian Sullivan (Ctrl+-) works great.

You also can use a side button on your mouse (if your mouse has a side button and that button programmed for Back functionality in a browser).

If you have an MS mouse with the latest Intellipoint drivers installed, you can have program-specific commands associated with mouse buttons. Find out what the "Back" keyboard command is for your program. For VS .NET 2003/2005/2008 it is Ctrl+\ (control backslash) which is tied to View.NavigateBackward. Then go into the Control Panel for the mouse, click on the checkbox for "Enable program-specific settings" and then click on Settings.

Click on "Add" and pick your favorite Visual Studio and map Ctrl-\ to the left button.

Others programs of interest:

uVision3 IDE (the Keil compiler):    Alt-Left
Adobe Reader 9.0:                    Alt-Left
javaw (as in Eclipse):               Ctrl-F2
VB6:                                 Ctrl-Shift-F2

Actually, the Eclipse one isn't Ctrl-F2 but is something that cannot be mapped, so I added that mapping within Eclipse and then the new mapping in the mouse driver.

Hope that helps!

A third party tool like ReSharper would give you the functionality you require.

It is "da bomb!"

Navigation in the Solution explorer is a thing of the past.

The easiest way for me to do it is to add a bookmark before I go to the definition. To get back i just toggle back
