What version?

I understand VFP 7 (which I don't use yet) has some bugs here.

Setting a breakpoint on the method name (e.g.: "Click") works fine in VFP6, but I was informed that this didn't work reliably in VFP 7 either.

Get the latest SP as soon as it becomes available. I think it isn't available, yet.


The safest workaround for debugging seems to be to edit the code, and explicitly issue a "SET STEP ON".

Sometimes it helps to put something like "WAIT WINDOW", just to make sure a certain method gets called at all.

HTH, Hilmar.
