For some reason that i don't know my version of DarkBASIC Professional has this odd problem with stepthrough. I ran stepthrough once on a program and it stopped on the first line where i had written

Rem making, texturing, and positioning object

I thought that was weird because there was nothing wrong with it. it was a remark not a command. So i started a blank project and tried

Print "hi"

I tried stepthrough on that and i got the same thing. Am I doing anything wrong?

Step through is used for debugging. It stops on every line. Click on the Step Program button to step to the next line. If you want it to stop on a particular line, right click that line and select toggle breakpoint. Then in Step Through mode, click on Play program. It will stop every time your program hits that line.

That said, I never use the debugger. The variable watcher doesn't work the way I would like. I find it easier to print my variables and use the wait key command wherever I need to debug.
