When i test a project i usually press Ctrl+Break to pause the execution to change a value here or there, but unfortunately VB opens a new tab titled "No Source Available" and it become difficult to back to the tab that i was working with specially when there are a lot of opening tabs.
Is there any option to stay on the current tab when pressing Ctrl+Break?
how do i call a routine when the user press CTRL+Z or ctrl+somthing?

-VB6 and VS2008 IDEs use Ctrl+Break to pause execution for debugging.
-I need a way to map another key combination to trigger a Ctrl+Break
My setup may make this easier or harder but to be clear I am running Kubuntu 9.10 (latest stable) and WinXP in a VirtualBox VM. Obviously all VB6/VS2008 dev is taking place in the virtual machine.So maybe it's possible to have the linux host send through Ctrl+Break based on a key mapping, or maybe it's possible to remap directly in WinXP. I'd settle for any solution as atm I need to use the XP On-Screen keyboard to send a Ctrl+Break.
I am new to VS 2008 but have used VB6 for years. I want to be able to run my program in the IDE but when a Msgbox displays a message I want to stop the program and see the MsgBcode. I am using Windows 7 and VS 2008 professional on a 64 bit machine. How can I do this? Do I have to install a 32 bit version of VS 2008?

I'm importing several fields, and that is, about 25 lines of code each importing one field (in my case, there's really no other way).It's in a try-catch block, but there are some times, that this field doesn't exist in the source, but I have to get the rest.
from 20.
I get 10
the 11th one doesn't exist (exception)
I still need from 12 to 20.
In case I don't want to test the existence one by one, I'd like to know how try works. in case of an exception, it doesn't execute the rest, right? what could fit for me ?
obs: it's way more than 20, I want a smart-and-non-poluting solution for it.
I am creating a small applicaiton for simulating dice roll. To simulate bounces I change the position of the picture randomly. Now to simulate more than one bounce, I used a for loop to continuously change the position of the picture box. But it is not happening as I planned, the form only displays the position of the last loop. I even tried using System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) hoping to show the bounces, but even they show the last loop only.
For bounceCount As Integer = 1 To bounces
bounce(pb_dice1)
bounce(pb_dice2)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000) 'I need to pause here and show the recent change in position then continue after 3 seconds
Next
the bounce method changes the position of the PictureBox.
How can I pause my for loop, display the newly positioned dices, and then continue after 3 seconds?

I want a part of my web browser to navigate to the home page when the user performs the shortcut Ctrl-H. I'm not sure how to go about telling the program to detect the KeyUp (or would it be KeyDown?) from anywhere in the program (for example, not just in the Private Sub of a text box but rather for the entire form). Here's what I have so far:
Private Sub Form1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyUp
If (Microsoft.VisualBasic.Asc(e.Control && e.KeyCode == Keys.H) Then
WebBrowser1.Navigate(My.Settings.HomeUrl)
End If
End Sub

This is an IDE question for VB Express 2008. It might be a bug in the IDE, or maybe it's my fault somehow?
My main form is named FrmMain and in my application's properties I have set frmMain as my startup object. All of that seems like what a lot of coders do.
But while debugging I hit Ctrl-Break, as I have done for years, and I get an behavior in the IDE that I wasn't expecting. Upon doing so, I get the green background text and the green arrow indicating in a tooltip: "This is the next statement to execute when this thread returns from the current function." Even if I didn't have the designer document open, it automatically opens frmMain.Designer.vb in the editor and hihglights line in green. The line is of course: Partial Class frmMain which is line 2 of the file. (Yes, it's highlighting the second line of the designer-generated code.)
The thing is, frmMain seems to have fully loaded and it's my startup object. As far as I know there shouldn't be a "next statement to execute" at all because code should be idle. I don't want to see the Designer.vb document... I want to edit my own code. Even though my form is behaving just fine, could there somehow be an unfinished aspect of loading the form such that it is "not returning" from a function?
Edit: In response to a couple comments, I'm adding three screen shots:
I had to "Enhance" the small tool tip, as when you press ctrl or alt it fades, so the screen shot only showed it lightly.

[code] This all works great but when the last line is run in Button 2 [code] another page is displayed before the data I am trying to get is available. There are more fields and another button to be pressed. However, because another page is loaded, I don't think I can just plop in the lines of code I need to manipulate the website because of load delays. Should I use VB's timer to delay a few seconds before running the next sequence of code?

In the applications I can debug, the default is 'Active (Debug)'; in the others is 'Active (Release)'. If I change the options, the word 'Active' remains attached to the original option.
