Fact 2053: Control click will highlight an entire word in VS

519S2R9QQ0L._SS500_[1] Sara Ford over at blogs.msdn.com has an amazing stream of tips and tricks with Visual Studio.  She currently is on 256!  A bunch of these tid bits about VS I had no clue were even in it!

One of my favorite tricks that most I’ve talked to aren’t aware of is using the Immediate window as a debugger.  You can do this during design or runtime.

Try double click on that word :D

While that does work, I tend to control click then drag.  I tried the double clicking then dragging and found some times I'll drag the word or miss the entire word.

Thanks however for the heads up.  If you have any tricks, please comment.
