Brown dot

[Mazza]

HI guys,
Can anyone please tell me why a brown dot appears next to a line of code and
that line is high lighted in brown when you click next to a line of code on
the left hand side?

This is a joke right?

If you REALLY don't know what that is, how it's used, etc..., I think you had
better quit while your ahead, and pick up a good book on Access programming.


What that 'Brown Dot' and highlighted line means it that you (the developer
who is looking at the code in the database) has set a "breakpoint" - used to
stop your code at a particular spot, so that you can see what's happening
'behind the scenes'...

HTH,

Corey

PS: Post back when it turns Yellow...

It's a Breakpoint. Code execution will stop when it reaches that line,
and allow you to view variables' values, step through the code,
restart, and so on.
