Line References on Errors?

[Wayne Wengert]

When I get runtime errors the stack trace includes a pointer to a specific
line in the code but that line often seems to point to the line that makes a
call to a subroutine while the error is somewhere in the subroutine? Is
there a way to get the actually line nbr that caused the error?

Well the stack trace is doing what it suppose to do. This is were debugging
comes in. If you downloaded the .NET framework SDK then you should have a
GUI version of the CLR debugger. Look for it in the GuiDebug folder in your
SDK install directory. Then use it to set a breakpoint and step through
your code until you break at the line causing the error.

BTW, I am assuming you are NOT using VS.NET, if you are, should have already
went through this process
