Hi everyone
Before I forget - we are on V7r3

This problem has been bugging me for many releases and a long time
The unfortunate thing is - it doesn't happen all the time, and I cannot see any commonality as to when the problem does happen

I can be in STRDBG and place a watch on one (or more fields)
My understanding with watch is the debug session is supposed to stop when the value contained in that field changes

Well - on some occasions - that is NOT happening
I have even gone the next step and placed breaks just BEFORE the code changes the field and a couple of lines AFTER the code has changed the field, but the debug does not stop on the field change
On the breaks before - yes

A couple of lines AFTER - yes,
Looking at the value of the field before and after shows that the field has indeed changed
Is it that I don't understand the use of watch?
Am I missing a PTF?
As always - all replies gratefully accepted
