I cannot use the Ctrl+F and Ctrl+H in my SQL Management studio. Even if I use the menu items it doesn't work. Haven't installed anything new or changed anything recently. Any ideas?

A: 

Reinstall.

This is most definitely not a solution, you're addressing the issue yes, but you're not addressing the cause of the problem.

@baldy - sometimes things just go wrong and there's nothing you can do about it. In this case it would have been a pain and would have fixed the problem, but obviously Marc's answer was far better.

Have you recently used multi-monitor? Is it possible that it is opening off-screen? I get this problem a lot when disconnecting my laptop from an external monitor...

(edit) There is a Window -> Reset Window Layout menu option in SSMS 2008, that should fix it.

Window -> Reset Window Layout helps me.

Perfect! multi-monitor causes this.. Just minimize VS. Put to the other monitor. You'll see opened window when you Ctrl+F
