Not sure how BreakPoints work?!?!

Not sure how debugging works as far as breakpoints. I have some questions:
1- In my breakpoint operation there is no indicator as in a C# program on the red dot that the process got there is that correct? 
2- Expressions on COM5 is "Waiting for debug breakpoint data" What is this? Please explain.
3- Within the Serial Monitor I got "08:43:01.787 EcoXsavr.ino, line 115 setup()". Is this how the breakoint is acknowledged?

I have a pix of this action but there is no way that I see to attach the Jpeg to this message so you can see it...Is there?

Can you help me?

Thank you,
Bill

We have a permissions problem that prevents attachments you can email them to info [at] visualmicro.com

For the other questions... 

We do need better tutorials but I think the tutorials that we have explain all of your questions.

You can also re-read the page with the download instructions because it has the original crude instructions but it also gives you a link to� visualmicro.com which has many document in the Debug wiki section...

http://visualmicro.com/archive.aspx

One of the documents is this one:-http://visualmicro.com/post/2012/05/05/13-Arduino-Debug-BreakPause-Into-Source-C...

You should also watch this video, especially the last half:-

http://www.visualmicro.com/tutorials/ArduinoDebugger_Tutorial_Level1.html

When you have done this let me know which areas are still unclear for you so that I can understand what document would help.

Thanks
