Try this simple program:
Sub TestDebug()

Do Until x = 1
x = x + 1
Loop
End Sub
When you run this, the program never finishes becausexwill never equal 1. Press
CTRL-BREAK,and the error window will appear. Click Debug, and you will be in instant
watch mode in the code window. Move your cursor across any instance ofxand its value will
appear (see Figure 7-1).
