Breakpoints Not Breaking

RLN

I set a breakpoint and Access does not stop and show the code windoe for
me to step through code.

Here are three lines at the beginning of a button click event:

- MsgBox "RLNTEST-made it to here 1"
- lngLooper = lngLooper + 1
- MsgBox "RLNTEST-made it to here 2"
The breakpoint is on the 'lngLooper' line.
Instead, both msgboxes are displayed and the code keeps right on going
and I cannot debug my error.

What setting in the editor is not correct?
At Tools/Options, "Error Trapping" is set to "Break in Class module".
(all checkboxes in the "Editor" tab are checked)

What am I missing so that the app stops when I set a breakpoint?

Does it work if you try
Break on Unhandled Errors
?

If that still doesn't work, try a decompile.
Step 4 as suggested here:
