CTRL-F in Outlook

Does anyone else find the fact that you have to do an F4 in Outlook to Find something extremely annoying?  I use CTRL-F for every other application to do a Find.  But evidently Forwarding is more important. 

I found that Jenson Harris wrote about this in detail as to why this is the case.

I still don't like it...  :)

I got used to hitting F5 to refresh everything (folders, MSIE, Outlook) -- but F5 is no longer send/recieve in Oulook it was changed to F9 -- F-Nine?

Thankfully I've learned to change (^_^)

Yeah...  A tip here:  Use Shift-F9 to only get the folder you are in.

What is also annoying is that when you switch between different language versions, the shortcuts change. E.g. Ctrl-F in English IE is Ctrl-B in Danish IE.
