Here's an interesting twist. I changed my project a release build to test something and now I cant change it back to debug. Any idea why?

Ah, I always mooch when I can

Wow. Thanks. I kinda feel guilty getting an answer to a hard-to-find question like that for free. Kinda. HA HA

I think you can also right-click on your solution node in the Solution Explorer and select "Configuration Manager..." from the menu.  Then, you can set the active solution configuration.

Don't feel bad... it took me forever to figure that one out as well... VS2005 kinda hides the options be default.  The best way I have found is to use:

Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> Check the "Show advanced build configurations" and click OK.

You should then have a drop down on one of your toolbars in VS that will let you swap between Debug and Release (and any other configurations you have created).

I cant seem to find where I would change my visual basic 2005 project into a release build. I'm so embarrased.
