Bob- Here are a couple of things to look at: First of all, in the message box you can "put the breakpoints", and that will tell you what's active at the moment. Second, if you've got a repeatably weird action, you can check the custom property that contains the soft breakpoints for the topstack. F

Bob- Soft breakpoints in the IDE are a bit weird. They're tied to the line number, for one thing, so if you edit the code so that your saved soft breakpoint no longer matches the line number it was saved with, it will no longer trigger. -- Mark Wieder ahsoftw...@gmail.com - -- Mark Wi
