>Thanks for dealing with this.
>I can't use newsgroup easliy as I can use UT. It's a pain to download and read only one message. Wish they had something like UT.

I use (free) agent by Forte (www.forteinc.com). It is a newsreader which is great for off-line reading. I download all the messages to my HD and read them off-line. For me, it is even faster then the UT. I suggest you try it out. (In case you don't have the URL, the promatrix newsgroup can be found at news.promatrix.com)

>For debugging it was not my point just the message. I would really be comfortable if that only popped "There is an error". I could find&fix it if I could use the debugger. I can't understand why they killed a valuable tool for development (and it's only for developers). I could easily write my own error handler for the user side. It's no plus to have it just like a user interface.

I agree that this error handler is not for developers, that's why I have it off in development. BTW, if you need things like supercls loaded for a project, you can create/copy sXXXupo.prg and sXXXupc.prg (o for open and c for close) these programs are run whenever a project is opened or closed. I cannot live without them anymore.
Of course, you can build your own error handler, but that costs you money for something that you get within the package, to take it to the extreme, you could build your own framework yourself, but I hope you have lot's of money in the bank, because during that time, you can't sell a product to the customer (unless they are converted VB programmers <s>)

At least they could just stop at error point but code tries to continue after messaging. I find myself continously pressing OK or cancel just to return development. Generally it ends up with on shutdown-quit combination.

See above...

>Since you're a VPM MVP I think you can easily take their attention to this. I can't believe it's still out. "debugger" is not a luxury to developer IMHO it's a must. Thanks.

VPM has already listened, the debugging in VPM Enterprise (The next version of VPM with C/S and 3tier. support) is a lot better then VPM Regular.
