Hi Doug, I have never been able to run a symbolic debugger from Linux with Character code. However I have run the character code under windows and in this way I was able to call the debugger. My "lazy" approach was to Run the Progress executable C:\Progress\OpenEdge\bin\_progres.exe NB I included the parameters for my served DB's in my Target. This opens a progress editor in which I ran a piece of code that set my propath pointing at my local code repository called a local version of the start program for the application this contained a call to the debugger i.e. DO: DEFINE VARIABLE LV_DEBUG AS LOGICAL NO-UNDO. LV_DEBUG = DEBUGGER:INITIATE(). LV_DEBUG = DEBUGGER:SET-BREAK(). END. If your environment is set up to run debug this fires the debugger screen. I would then set a break to the procedure(s) I required. BTW my ini contained the line V6Display=yes There was an amount of setup I had to complete like creating version so of directories etc, bypassing/replacing some code members that made direct calls to the OS. Once that was done I could run my character code and step through it in the debugger. I Hope this Helps Yours, Michael Greenwood
