While trying to debug an application you may see a break point with a question mark. When you view the details you may see, “The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded.”. I have run across this before, and decided to add a note about it here to help you. The reason for this is the project is not configured for debugging information. To change the configuration, right click on the project, and choose Properties. Under Properties select the Configuration Properties > Build item and change 'Generate Debugging Information' to True. This should solve your no break point break point problem.
