Hi Jon,

I hear your problem. Somebody with more knowledge of the Visual Studio
debugger than me may be able to help you place your PDB files so that it
can find them.

Failing that, I could recommend you try WinDbg. I've often used it
(successfully) for remote debugging, but unfortunately never with Smart
Devices.

If you're able to establish a debugging session with a process on your
device, it allows you to manually load PDB symbols into the debugging
session (from the File menu, IIRC). This could solve your problem.

Another thought, have you tried running your application in the
emulator? It may be a little easier to coerce the debugger into reading
the PDB file if it's all happening locally.

Regards

Mike
