I'll second that emotion - for the most part.

1. Don't know if I agree with that - mainly because I fall squarely in #2 camp, having used VFP5 debugger maybe 4 or 5 times in over 2 years. WAIT WINDOWs seem to be all I need. The majority of non-trivial bugs I encounter in my apps are MSKB material.

2. through 5. Agree.

6. Some might argue that it could fit into "Troubleshooting", but that category tends to get hijacked by people with IIS and SQL7 issues, Novell Client32 problems, etc. etc.

I would also like to see information on the practical use of DEBUGOUT and methods for logging event firing sequences. BTW are there any good articles and/or FAQs here on any debugging topics?
