"No symbols loaded"

[Lou]

I get an error on my break points "The breakpoint will not be currently be
hit. No symbols loaded"
I notices the icons in my solution explorer are blank?

This is a .dll I am trying to debug, but I can never get to the break
points.

Is this an IDE known bug?

Hi Lou,
Are you using debug version of the dll. .NET doesn't build-in debug symbols
into the executable. It keeps them in separate file with extension 'pdb'.
So, make sure that you have file with name <your dll name>.pdb along with
the dll in the application folder

yes, my .dll is named DekolibU.dll and in the \bin\Debug folder there is a
DekolibU.pdb file?

Ok there is DekolibU.pdb in the \bin\Debug folder of DekolibU project,
Do you have the same file in the \bin\Debug folder of your exe file project.
Normaly the IDE copies that file when you add the dll as a reference in the
exe project. Check if your project uses the dll form the bin\Debug folder
as a reference assembly. Just a guess - you may use the dll from the
bin\Release folder for reference.
