VS.Net - Debug and Release Builds

Hi All,

I've been told that VS.Net has two build options - debug and release. Can
anyone tell me how to uses these? Utp now, I've just build using the build
button.

Thanks,
Simon.

Debug build outputs extra code that gives extra information about an errors
that are encountered, such as the exact line(s) where the error occurred.

Release build is optimized for size and speed and you should use this pretty
much only for your final build that will be deployed into production.
