   |   >TP  B2, 410, READ, 10, >
   |
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Workaround
This problem will be circumvented by using custom commands m_hb and m_tp that have been prepared to allow the HB and TP commands to be executed correctly. Also, the hardware breakpoint and trace point setting dialog boxes can set events normally. For information on installing and using the custom commands, refer to the README file included in the hb_e.exe file to be supplied.
