How to Stop Visual Basic

Visual Basic is a computer programming language used for creating applications and web pages. When using the preview (debug) mode, the Visual Basic runs a sample of the code. Once the code is run, Visual Basic needs to be stopped to return to coding.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Click the "Start" button in the Debug menu in the Visual Studio application. This runs the debugger and starts the application. If you have any errors in the code, a compiler will display an error.

2. Click the "Break" button in the Debug menu when you want to change any code during the debug process. This allows you to view variable values and fix code while running the application.

3. Click the "Debug" menu again and choose "Stop." This stops the Visual Basic debugger and returns you to the workspace of the project.
