Navigating code in Turbo Delphi

I have recently begun using Delphi again (Turbo Delphi 2006) after having used VB and C++ in Microsoft Visual Studio 6. Both those IDEs made it very easy to quickly locate class properties and procedures by providing a treeview on the left-hand side.

Now, it seems Turbo Delphi has something similar in the Structure View, but I find that every time I compile my code the Structure View tree closes. I then have to painstakingly go down the tree again, clicking open branches until I get to the heading I want.

Is there a way to keep the damn thing open? Or should I use some other method to find my way quickly around the code in my classes?



 
I can't stand the thing so I've turned it off. But I don't think you can fix it. In the options there is one to keep the Structure View on top of the desktop no matter what --perhaps that will help...

If you hold the Ctrl key down and mouse over keywords you can jump directly to the code that defines/implements it.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
