Luke,

The .NET command window is really a DOS command prompt with the PATHs preset to make it easy to use the .NET external tools. VB.NET, C#, J#, etc. are all compiled languages, so there really is no way to run ad-hoc commands without compiling them first.

A work-around to this limitation is to add a console project to whatever solution you are working in. Console projects are lightweight enough that you can quickly write and execute top-down code for things like pre-loading a database or isolating and testing sections of code.

Unfortunately, there is no way to interrupt program execution and execute ad-hoc commands within the context of the interrupted program.
