Unable to DEBUG Silverlight Project?

Today, I was looking at one of the client's Silverlight projects. I was able to debug anything but Silverlight code!

I did a lot of R&D on the internet and tried various tricks suggested. But only this thing worked for me:

When you add a Silverlight project to an ASP.NET solution, you create two projects…

1. The startup project (interface starter)
2. The interface itself

Now:

1. Right click on the startup project (SilverlightWeb — the one with default.aspx in it )…
2. Click on ‘Property Pages’.
3. Open ‘Start Options’ Tab.
4. Enable Silverlight Debugger.
5. OK.

If step 3 is missing, then:

3. There must be 'Silverlight Applications' tab. Open it.
4. Click Add button, you will get a window to add the Silverlight projects.
5. Add Silverlight interface.
6. Enable Silverlight Debugging in options.
7. Add it. Save.
