It is possible that Vim is not recognizing the items in the quickfix
window as locations that can be jumped to. :grep uses the 'grepformat'
option to parse the output of the command given in 'grepprg'. What are
the values of these two options on your system? The defaults on my
Windows XP install work fine:
:verbose set grepprg? grepformat?
grepprg=findstr /n
grepformat=%f:%l:%m,%f:%l%m,%f %l%m
