How do I set Windows to boot as the default in the boot loader?

9 days ago I added Kubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) to Windows 7 on my computer. Since then I have spent 12 hours plus trying to change the default grub selection from Ubuntu to Windows. I have gotten several different kind of advice, but none of them work.

I have changed to GRUB_DEFAULT=5 and tried GRUB-DEFAULT "Windows......" But no matter what, when I restart, Ubuntu is again the one that starts as default.

When I open the text editor it clearly now states "Windows....." as default, and it also showed 5, when 5 was set as default, only when I start up the computer.... it is always ubuntu, unless I stand at the computer and when the page with the boot options comes (GNU GRUB version 1.99 - 12ubuntu5) I click down to the sixth and last entry, my windows....

How to make this work?

After changing that configuration file, you need to run sudo update-grub in a Terminal to make it take effect.
