Stepping through code (IDE Q)

[StrangerInBeijing]

Hi,

I'm getting on cool with learning Java (only started a week ago) and so far only used notepad and the command prompt to compile.
(yes..still at command line apps, taking my time, trying to learn things properly.....System Error suggested that, and I agree).

Installed NetBeans and JCreator on my machine, but for later. OK..used JCreator a bit, but never got it to work..nevermind that...looks like just a fancy text editor, numbering your lines and do syntax hightlighting

Just want to know when on start using NetBeans, can one step through your code, line by line, checking variable values as with visual studio (vb.net)?

Know you will say,check for yourself, but it's installed on my home machine, and busy on a notebook at my friends work. So either no, and I stay here, having a free dinner (still no job .. lol) or go home, and use Netbeans .

Cheers
