Booth,
I had the same problem as I had become used to the GREAT strisdb utility. 
 I was doing the STRDBG and then expecting the source to come up 
automatically like it does on the STRISDB, but first..you key the STRDBG 
command which puts your workstation and the program into the debug 
mode....Then you CALL the program.  I was getting confused with this also.
