Hello all

When I want to step forward through my code as it is executing I can use the F8 key to see what is being executed. My question is how do I step backwards.
I have a form deactivate function that is being called and I can't figure out why so I have 'red tagged' the function to force the code to stop executeing at that point. I want to be able to step back to the line of code that executed before the function starts.

Thanks in advance for any replys
 
put your cursor on that line and to a Ctrl+F9. Or right click the line and choose Set Next Statement or you can do it through the menu too.
 
I think you need to use the call stack which will show the routines used to get to where you are.... Call stack is in the view menu (Ithink not at a pc with VB on)

Not well explained, I know!

Take Care
