Topic: ctrl-^ not working in visual studio 2010 (Win7 64-bit)

I recently downloaded ViEmu and am currently loving it, however one nagging problem I have is that ctrl-6/ctrl-^ doesn't seem to switch to the previous buffer (and :e # doesn't appear to work either so I can't just remap to that).  This is with Visual Studio Professional 2010 on Win7 64-bit.

I've gone to the Tools|Options|Environment|Keyboard and tried removing the default VS mappings for ctrl-6, I've reset the ViEmu key bindings, I've restarted Visual Studio, all to no avail.

Is there something else I need to do in order to get this working?

Re: ctrl-^ not working in visual studio 2010 (Win7 64-bit)

After playing around some more, I managed to find a fix to this problem.

If I go in to the Keyboard settings and add a mapping for ctrl-6 to ViEmu.KeypressCtrlCircumflex then it works.  Hurray! 

Strange that this isn't set by default though.

Ok, but ctrl-6/ctrl-^ is the default in both vi and vim, so I just found it curious that it wasn't being set.
