Re: [AD] Breakpointing an app in the MSVC 6 debugger can get a key to be stuck in Windows 2000

[aj <aj@xxxxxxxxxx>]

i dont know.

lets say it does happen in msvc7 or 8;  the problem of using msvc6  
still exists.
and would need to be fixed; that person fixing would need to use msvc7 
or 8, as v6 is unreliable.. so therefore needs to get v7 or 8 again.

lets say it does NOT happen in v7,8;   then the problem is msvc6's 
debugger, and needs to be upgraded to v7,8

either way...  msvc6 is not helping this situation.


msvc7 is a free download from M$, or for a small fee; i think you can 
order a CDROM from M$.
