I have a vb.net 2005 project and wonder what else needs to be enabled to
allow me to edit a line(s) of code while in break mode and then bne able to
carry on with execution of the application. Currently, if I attempt to
change a line of code (either the line I am currently on, or any subsequent
lines) in break mode, I get a message at the bottom that indicates it is in
read only mode and that no changes can be made.

I have ensured that the "Edit and Continue" is enabled and that the JIT
debugger (found in Tools->Options->Debugging) is also enabled.

My co-worker using the exact same version of vb.net (same service pack and
all) can do what it is I want to be able to do. We have checked settings on
both machines and can't seem to find the right one. I'm hoping it's an easy
fix! :-)

Help!!

Thanks, Brad

What sort of Project is this.
Despite the much lauded return of Edit and Continue, it quite simply
does not work for many types of project mostly those that require the
IDE to attach itself to an external process (e.g. Windows Services & Web
Applications).
