How to quickly open a file in Visual Studio 2012

I am trying VS2012 RC but find one good feature no available any more (or if it still is, please let me know): in VS2010, if I know a file name, for example, MyFile.cs, I can quickly open it by typing Ctrl+D (or whatever shortcut assigned) to go to Find tool, and then type >of myfile.cs, the file will be opened then, and it is even more convenient that this will do an incremental search of the file name. In the whole procedure I don't need to use mouse at all.

The new Quick Launch tool in VS2012 only searches in opened files, which is really not what I want. Does this feature get supported in VS2012? Is so or if some similar way exists, please tell me.
