>Question.... when I am working with the VFP 8.0 here at work, when I trace code, it always starts the debugger in default settings.... I have to always move my trace, locals, watches, etc... to where I want them in the debug window. How do I stop this behavior and have it remember the settings (the places I moved the sub-windows in debug) for this project?
