Hello:

I am new to Paradox and this board has been a great help.

Here is my question:

I am trying to run debug on a application.

We are using Paradox 11.

I want to trace the code within one of the forms.

Here is what I have done:

1. Made sure the ObjectPal Level within Developer Preferences is set to Advanced.

2. Open form (Edit Mode)

3. Open Object Explorer (Methods) and the method I want to debug. Which is the first to be executed in the form.

4. Add the breakpoint to the first line on the code.

5. Select Compile Warnings, Compile with Debug.

6. Save / Compile Code, Form.

Then I run the app. within paradox.
I get No debug window.
Then I place a trace in the first script.
Ran the app.
Got the debug window for the first script.
Click Run and never get the debug window for the Form.

I read something about a "ShowCode" it said for this to work that the Program | Compile With Debug is checked.
It is checked.


Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to tell you as much I could about teh problem.

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks in Advance..
 
With the code window open, open the 'Tracer'.

It will trace ALL code executing, but at least you will get what you need.
