Debugging C#, "Start Application" is Unavailable

Hello,

I'd like to debug my applications using C#, AutoCAD 2005, and VS 2003, but
when I go to Project->Properties->Debugging the "Start Application" option
is greyed-out.

I feel like I've tried changing every setting in that thing, but it never
allows me to start in AutoCAD.

Any ideas? Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks for any help.

-Carlos

Hi,

That lab was actually what I was following when I was trying to have VS
start AutoCAD. I cannot complete this step:

To test this in AutoCAD we can have Visual Studio start a session of
AutoCAD. Right click on "Lab1" in Solution Explorer and select "Properties".
In the Lab1 Property Pages dialog select "Configuration Properties >
Debugging. In the Start Action area, choose 'Program' under "Debug" and in
"Start applications" use the ellipses button and browse to acad.exe. After
changing this setting hit F5 to launch a session of AutoCAD.

The "Start Action" area is greyed out, including all of its constituents.

I cannot enable this option for any C# applications that I create. Anyone
know what settings I have to have in order to enable this?

Thanks,

Carlos

After selecting 'Program' under "Debug", Apply the changes.

Oh my goodness,

I wasn't hitting Apply after changing it to Program. Sigh.

Thanks very much.
