The secret code, as I recall, is:

CTRL-B

It is well-hidden. There is no way to open the breakpoint window other than hitting ctrl-b . There is no menu option or toolbar button or anyhting for it.

Besides Ctrl-B, you can:

This is for VC 6.0:
From the menu: Edit/Breakpoints....
Menu hotkeys: Alt-E, K
Keyboard shortcut: Alt-F9

This is for VC 7.0:
From the menu: Debug/New Breakpoint...
Menu hotkeys: Alt-D, B
Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl-B (as you mentioned)
Other method: Alt-F9 (or Ctrl-Alt-B or Debug/Windows/Breakpoints from the menu) and then click New in the breakpoints window, or right click in the breakpoints window and select New Breakpoint...

Not so well-hidden.

I knew of Ctrl+B just because sometimes I accidentally hit it when I mean to type Ctrl+V (B & V are next to each other).
