>>>Hi All:

>>>I have the following annoying bug in the debugger: Sometimes the arrow stops a few lines before the actual line that it is executing, so that as I step thru the code, it is actually executing a few lines later. This makes debugging very frustrating. If this is a bug in 5.0, then there is nothing I can do. However, is there a solution to this?

That, I've never seen.
