Thanks Jensen, that is good to know.
In my case however, I'm not using a make file for my project so it must be
something else. I've tried both the GDB and MDB debuggers but I'm not
getting anything. This time around I did notice the 'step into', etc buttons
on the top right. My eye slid over them because they are always grayed out.
I really don't know what I'm missing here. I have the project type which is
MSBuild (VS 2008). Is this possibly related?
