Hi Hin,



  Thanks for your quick response. It worked when I used the "Add Breakpoint"
trick.  Do I have to use "Add Break point" and follow up with "Step Into" or
"Step Over" to debug the project?  I am working on a complicated java
project including hundreds of source files connected to a similar package
serving as a library for this project.  I just switched to use JBuilder to
work on this project.  Since I'm a new user for JBuilder, could you tell me
a good strategy to debug such kind of project using Jbuilder.  Do I have to
use different "Break points" for different source files in order to find
bugs in these classes?  Many thanks,



Yu
