VS 12 Keyboard Shortcut "Cntl + Right" - Function?

I checked the VS Pro X2 help file (and the manual) to find keyboard shortcuts. Following is an except from the Help file's list of "Timeline" shortcuts:

Left: Select the previous clip on the Timeline.
Right: Select the next clip on the Timeline.
Ctrl + Right: Scroll forward.
Ctrl + Left: Scroll backward.

The "left/right" reference apparently refers to the arrow keys because pushing the right arrow key advances the timeline to the start of the next clip.

But the "Ctrl + Left" and "Ctrl + Right" combinations don't do anything, at least on my system. I expected them to scroll through the timeline in the direction designated by the arrow key for as long as I held the two keys down.

Do these two keystroke combinations do anything on your system?

Thanks for checking. My system is Vista 64 bit. Not sure whether that is the difference.
