In Microsoft’s Visual Studio Editor Search Without Hurting Paste Buffer

I know this seems kind of trivial but I just accidentally discovered a feature in Visual Studio that probably all in all has cost me many many lost seconds of productivity.  I often find myself in visual studio with something in my paste buffer but want to search for something else in code.

I’m in  them middle of full speed prep for Silicon Valley Code Camp (which is what this program I am using for the example below is) as well as working on my next Sencha ExtJS 5 upgrade Plurasight video so I have my tools all cranked up.
