Difference between VB Debugger and the Script Debugger:

No "on the FLY" editing

Because the scripting window is read-only, you cannot edit the code during execution, as you can most of the time with VB.

No Instant Watch (Shift-F9)

The VB debugger's instant watch FACILITY, which ALLOWS you to highlight a variable in your code, PRESS Shift-F9, and see the value of the variable, is not available in the Script Debugger.

Cannot set watches Watches do not exist in the Script Debugger.

Cannot set the next statement Using the VB Debugger, you can place the cursor on a line of code and, by clicking CTRL-F9, have program execution resume at that line. This is particularly useful to backtrack or to re-execute a section of code. UNFORTUNATELY, this feature is not available in the Script Debugger.
