No. You can set a breakpoint to fire after n-many passes though.
More than 100 levels is at least 95 levels too deep for most VB.NETers

What if you have recursive calls to the same function? Does that count?

Thanks!

Ooo! Cool!

I screwed up. I had a method which called a method which called back on
the first. In real life, the program hangs forever (eventually I assume
I would have run out of RAM and crashed?), but the debugger detected my
idiocy and broke automatically!
