I've never had any success using the DBPro debugger myself, but it sounds as if you have a breakpoint at that line?
That should make the debugger halt there so that you can check what has happened, etc. If that is the case, just remove the breakpoint from that line (in the main IDE it displays as a large red circle to the left of the line number) and it should not stop there any more.

put simply when you F6 it means that at any point in the program you can press escapekey then look at the values in your code to see what they store or if they are storing the value you think they should. plus to can direct command input so say there a cube on the screen you can say position object id x,y,z and change any of the value for a id x y z to move that object, can also be done with say color object id new rgb values, you see it change color there and then.

hope that explains it a bit more.

That does not need to be a problem; as long as it doesn't have too much media that we need to download as well.

Debug mode is does put a little "Debugger Console" down at the bottom. In here are a Command Line interface to operate a line of code from outside the program (which I don't think works), a "Variable Watcher" where you can see the values of any variables that are not local or in arrays or UDT's, and a "Step-through Mode" where you can step through your code to see what's wrong.

That's what they WANT you to think...
