I have a vb 2008 application which when I place a break point in the code looks fine but when i execute the app the breakpoint gets set to trasnparent with a tool tip informing me that this bnreak point will not be hit.

I have done everything I can think of to remedy this but to no avail, it is not a web app.

Any one know what i am sure is a simple answer?
 
I can't remember all of the times I've had this happen, but I think it has always been in reference to either code that is actually part of another dll or some situations with threading. What I always have to do is break before that section of code is called and then once it steps into the code you can then hit F5 and it will run until that break point.
