  In Query Analyzer, I right-click on a stored proc to bring up a menu, and select Debug... at the bottom to bring up the debugger. I have two parameters, one of which I give a value, and the other I set to NULL with a check box. I get the error message:

  "The debugger interface is not installed. Please re-run setup, select 'add components to your existing installation' and make. sure you select 'Development tools'\'Debugging Interface'"

  I don't know why I have to do this, because I've used the debugger before. But I try anyway. The Debugging interface is already checked, as is everything else.

  I'm stumped.

  Environment: Windows XP Professional, SQL Server v.8.00.760 (which should be SP3)

  Apparently I was using SP3. I uninstalled/reinstalled SQL Server, and installed SP3a. That appears to have fixed it.

  Only took a day and a half.

  I thought it was fixed. I tried to use it today, and it's broken. Too bad there's not a smiley for ripping hair out.
