How do I get the old behavior of "CTRL+BACK_ARROW" in Eclipse?

I recently upgraded my version of Eclipse to 3.7, and now I can no longer use Ctrl-Back Arrow to move to the beginning of a line. It now will only go to the beginning of the text on the line, but no further. How can I restore the old behavior?

Can you not just press the home button to get to the beginning of a line? Or am I misunderstanding your question?

Edit: Based on the comment you can change shortcuts through the following process.

Choose the Eclipse > Preferences menu command to open the Eclipse workbench Preferences. Select the General > Editor > Keys page. From here you can change the key bindings of shortcuts (Home is probably the one you want, as Previous Word is what is currently bound to Ctrl+Left)
