Eclipse Short Cut: File Search

I have looked and looked but I cannot find a shortcut for "File Search" in Eclipse.

I even downloaded the mousefeed plugin. (It is pretty cool whenever you do something with the mouse. A little popup comes up and tells you how you could have done that with a shortcut. Not super useful but somewhat useful.)

ctrl + H opens the search dialogue box. Click on customize and check the option 'Remember last used page'. First time you have to select the tab file search and perform a search. After that if you press ctrl + H , it will automatically point to file search tab.
