Switching workspaces on ubuntu host.

I have Workstation 9 running on 64bit ubuntu laptop with a docking station and 2 external monitors.  My vm is win7.  My ubuntu host has 4 desktops or workspaces that I can switch between.  I run the win7 vm in one of the workspaces.  I like to run the vm in full screen mode so that it will see both monitors.  The problem is that when I want to switch to another workspace on the host I have to switch out of full screen. 

Does anyone know other ways to switch workspace while in a full screen vm?

I figured it out.  CTRL + ALT to lose focus then CTRL + ALT + arrows to switch windows.
