I only get as far as "Microsoft", I don't have the "Windows NT" bit and
A quick search showed that I don't have "AeDebug" anywhere.

Well mine is here: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDe
v98\Bin\Msdev.exe". But where do I put that in the registry when I
don't have the "Windows NT" bit like I said earlier. Shouldn't this
have all been set up anyway when MS VS 6 was installed?

Sound like what I need. But I'm using Allegro for MSVC and my program
doesn't crash, it just quits all by itself, it isn't left in RAM or
anything...
