Two VERY basic IDE questions

[Michael Hesse]

Hi,

I am making the transition from VB 6.

1) Is is possible to modify the code when stopped at a breakpoint. When I
try to do this, I am told the code is in read-only mode.

2) How do I anchor a toolbar in the IDE? Every time I move one, it is
moved back after I run my application.

Thanks

There is a very simple answer for question number one: NO. :-) There is no
Edit-and-Continue feature in Visual Studio.NET 2002 or 2003. You'll have to
wait another year, because this feature is announced for the next version of
VS.NET: Whidbey.

Unfortunately: no. :-(

You can make it writable in the options (tools -> options -> <anywhere>) but
you have to restart the whole application.

The IDE stores different layouts when in "stop mode" and in debug mode.

You can turn on Edit and continue for VB and edit your code, but you will
have to stop and restart before it will take effect. The Edit and continue
functionality like we know it in VB6 will be 'reintroduced' in the next
version (Whidbey) which is due out in mid 2004, I believe.
