I am debugging a program that is the first program of a call stack. Program A, I'll call it, calls PGMB which calls PGMC and so on. Problem is PGMC is a 3rd party software product that has no source on the System i. So, the debugger hiccups when it tries to step into PGMC. Is there a way to make the debugger only step through PGMA and not the subsequent programs that are called.

F5 is Step Into, and F6 is Step Over. You should be able to use F5 when you want to step into the called method, and F6 when you don't. -
You didn't say which debugger you're using, Greg.
If you're using the system debugger or RDi, there's a step-return option. I use that when I accidentally step into a process that I didn't intend to go into.
If you're using the prehistoric debugger, press F14 to get a list of the modules, use option 5 to display the module you just came from, set a break point at the next statement, and press F12 to resume execution.
I'm quite an expert with the debuggers because my code is of such poor quality.Comment
