Hi David
when you say that it is not stopping at the line where the
field is initialized, what is the field initialized with?
If its still blank, then the watch sees no change, and
therefore will NOT stop.
If its some other value, then can you post some code showing
the field in question (D-spec) (and surrounding fields) as
well as the C-specs where it is initialized

Thanks Alan, I'll try and be more specific as I don't really want to post my code.

1. At the beginning of the sub-procedure, I check that MyDSPF_field = ' '
2. I find the line of code MyDSPF_field = ProgramVariable, and put a watch on MyDSPF_field with F17.
3. I hit F12 and the program doesn't stop.
4. I repeat everything, putting break points on and after MyDSPF_field = ProgramVariable to prove that MyDSPF_field is modified at that point.

In fact, I've had this problem for a long time, but I switched to the WDSc debugger. Unfortunately I no longer have that possibility.
