Hi Mr. Polite.

After a (big) bit of tinkering, I finally came up with this.

Dim a As Reflection.Assembly = Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly
 
        Dim o() As Object = a.GetCustomAttributes(GetType(System.Diagnostics.DebuggableAttribute), True)
        If o.Length > 0 Then
            MsgBox("Debug Mode")
        Else
            MsgBox("Release Mode")
        End If

Strange thing is, that when searching in the help, they claim that there is a DefineDebug property, but that's nowhere to be found.

The FileVersionInfo has a IsDebug property, which apparently always returns false, so that's not much use either.

But as far as I can tell, the above solution appears solid.

Enjoy.
