By F5 are you saying you want to run the program (pause it) then make changes?
With .NET the program is completely compiled (not pseudo code like VB6) and you are running from the .exe itself.
By default the designer is read-only once you run the program but you can disable it in the options.

HTH
thnks MagellanTX :) thats was the option i was looking for :)
at the risk of getting burned here, you still can't edit on the fly. I just tried that out and I couldn't.
tolisiss, did that work for you?
I've heard that the new version is going to allow that functionality.
Which new version??? :confused:Quote:

I tried, months ago, to use that option, but VB.NET code continue to be read only when running (also if stopped, obviously)!:(
I've heard the same thing, Andy, the next version of VB.NET, will give us, really, this chance! Let's hope it was the truth!:)
i have the Jan 2004 ver but its like MagellanTX said like attaching the process and debuging it so i think that debuging on the fly should never been possible
Edit and Continue is possible in the PDC Beta release of Whidbey.Quote:

When an error occurs, just correct the error, move the cursor up to line where you want it to start from, and execution is resumed from that point.
I think it was Edneeis who said, that it could prove to be a problem, because you are not running a fully compiled exe, but merely running in the IDE like old VB6, and he might have a point.
But nevertheless, the feature is most certainly there.
i'd say it's like any other tool in your garage...it's most useful when you know whether or not to use it. :)
