Scanning/searching through tracks.

Hi. Very weird question. I listen to albums with continuous tracks, meaning no gaps. When I scan backwards searching for a certain spot, the scan stops at the beginning of the track rather than continuing to the previous track. For my type of listening, this is not cool. I have to go to the beginning of the previous track, then scan forward through a very long track to get to the desired spot. My previous mp3 (not an ipod) just scanned continuously through tracks, backwards or forwards. Any way I can make my ipod do the same? Thanks. Nicolas
