>>As for the "difficult" comment: that comes from comments I hear from several people that they just don't use it because it's a PIA. I think there are few questions about it here on the UT because a lot of people don't use it. I suppose people are more focused on debugging their application than using the debugger.

I can't believe people don't use it either. I go crazy when I've got to try an debug an old Clipper app. Yes, they've got a debugger but it seems to cause me more trouble than it's worth. The VFP debugger is GREAT. I can't imagine anyone considering a PIA. It's not like you have to learn a huge amount about it to make it worthwhile.

Anyone reading this who isn't using the debugger, do yourself a huge favor and learn some of the basics of the VFP debugger. It's time well spent.
