Hi Xuan -

Thanks for the information. I'm sure that what happened. Since there's only
one procedure (the main procedure) in this program, and I'm not encountering
the first executable statement again, it was hitting the SEP. That's why it
worked when I stopped/restarted the server program.

Michael,

In the situation like yours (the server program has already running), it
really depends on your program execution path for if you could use SEP to
invoke a debug session.

When you set a SEP on a program level, it really means a SEP is set on the
first executable line of every procedure in every module of the program.
(So if you want to set SEP on specific module, it is more efficient to
expand to procedure level, and set SEP there).

So if you set your SEP on a running program, and then your execution of
your program actually invoke a procedure call,  the SEP should be
encountered, and a debug session should be invoked.

For example, this is the structure of your program:

myProgram --> myModule --> procedure1
                                                    --> procedure2

Currently, your procedure1 is on top of the call stack, and waiting for a
IO input from user.

You set a SEP on myProgram in RSE, which underneath, set SEP on first
executable line of procedure1 and procedure2.

User did some input operation, so the input is gather.  Depending on the
input, procedure2 is called.  Since there is SEP set on first executable
line of procedure2, this SEP will be encountered, and a debug session be
invoked with myProgram under debug.

But if procedure1 continue executing after user input is gathered, since
no
SEP is set in other lines in procedure1, no SEP will be encountered.  So
no
debug session will be invoked.

Thanks for the info Rick. It's not working for me - I must be doing
something wrong.
