If you put an exclamation mark in a "rem" comment such as

rem Oooooh, look at me!

then the program (when ran in Debug Mode (DBPro)) will stop allow you to step through the program; as if you had run it from Step through from the beggining.
Now I'll never have to quickly click between windows for skipping through menu's etc.. Hurrah!!

(Sorry, if you knew this or I've put it in the wrong place. Just thought it was an interesting discovery)

The "!" character is used by the debugger to specify a breakpoint.
You can put it in code as well.



You can also do it in the ide with ctrl+shift+f2 or right click > toggle breakpoint.

When you run it in step through mode the ide prefixes every line with a "!".

Not really much use as the debbugger crashes too much to make it useable. It crashed in that bit of code.
