Very helpful post. When I was starting my carrer, sometimes I had problems needing resolve like in this video. Shame there wasn’t video like this then :).

Anyway, have you ever encountered problem with debugging alone? One day, I wanted debug same cursor on local serwer instance and I encountered error message: “Unable to start T-SQL Debugging. Could not connect to computer ‘(local)’. [...]”
I was using Windows authentication and ‘(local)\’ as server name. It turn out that debugging is only available, when server name contains computer name explicitly.
