Cmd Button Click event not executed

Hey folks

I have some interesting behaviour going in.

Inside a form, I download some data. The form is used to show the status,
and set button states etc...

I have a break point set up at one of the button click event handlers. When
the button is clicked, the application doesn't stop at the breakpoint for
the click event. Nor does it stop at any of the other breakpoints.

The strange thing is that the code seems to execute, the button states
change accordingly and then the form closes. I have breakpoints setup where
the button states get changed. They don't seem to work either.Although
before I get to that point they do work.

I am starting this process using a timer so that I can start the process
after the form loads. I'm wondering if somehow the timer (which I think is
executed on a seperate thread) is somehow messing things up.

VB.Net + VS.Net 2003

Any ideas on this one?

thanks folks

Switched to Release configuration?

I haven't switched to release.

The method to change the state of the buttons gets called a few times during
the download.
The breakpoints are functional prior to me pressing the abort button.
When the abort button is pressed, the button states change and the window is
supposed to stay open. And the breakpoints should halt the application.

What does happen is that the states change, and the form closes. So the code
where the breakpoints are seem to be executing.

If you don't "start without debugging" I don' know why the breakpoints are
not hit.

Somebody once used Ctrl+F5 to do a full compile like in VB6, but this is now
starting without attaching the debugger. Maybe you did this, too, otherwise,
sorry, I can't help here.
