Problem with debugging in modules

[Philip]

Hi,

I have an Access project with several modules, forms etc.

When I put a breakpoint on an event procedure (behind a form) and run the
form I want the code to break so I can debug it.

Also, in my code modules (not behind forms) I have the same problem - I can
type the name of the procedure in the Immediate Window and hit Enter, but
even though there is a breakpoint the code either isn't running, or it isn't
breaking.

Is there some way to enable debugging?

thanks

Philip

In Tools | Startup, have you disabled the Use Access Special Keys?

That might also set the AllowBreakIntoCode property. Try checking
this, then close and reopen and see. If not, try some variations over
the following

With CurrentDB
.Properties("AllowSpecialKeys").Value = True
.Properties("AllowBreakIntoCode").Value = True
End If

Thanks,

it was because I had unchecked 'Allow Shortcut Keys' in Startup...
