Helps a lot when getting to your point of interest takes a long time, and there's a line you know will break it - just put your cursor on the line after that, and in the menu click 'Next statement' (or next command, whatever), and the debugger will skip all the lines between the current and that line. They won't be executed.

I use Set Next Statement a lot. Mainly to skip code that I don't won't executing because a previous problem will cause it to fail, yet I want to get out of the code gracefully. I don't use it much the way you mention. It would seem that using it that way would often result in errors in the later code because it would often depend on the preceeding lines executing.
