Hi Lee,
Sorry to hear it is too complicated.. the way I see it is, if you're writing code (not dragging and dropping stuff) then it's much quicker to flip abou using the keyboard rather than reaching for the mouse.
My most frequenly used shortcuts have to be Alt+Tab (switch tab), F7 (code view), F12 (Goto Definition) and good old Ctrl+C / V for copying a whole line WITHOUT selecting anything.
