Debugging CF apps on the desktop with CF 1.0 is not supported (with CF 2.0
it is possible but still not supported). You know that running (not
debugging) CF apps on the desktop is possible:

Even if you could debug them, remember that your code will be running
against the desktop framework where some things are different (including
different bugs <g>). The closest alternative you have is to create a desktop
project with the same source files and debug that:
