On the same note, does anyone know how to look at the Microsoft Intermediate
Language (PCODE) for the running program?  I'd love to see that.

Just thought you folks might be interested.  I found a right click menu item
in VB.Net as I was stepping through my program... "Go to disassembly" that
displays the machine code for the vb being processed.  Ain't that cool?  Not
that I've even looked at assembler in more years than I'd care to admit (and
no comments, never mind labels for the jump addresses) but it is still
fascinating.
