In VB6 I could set breakpoints and run the app. If the variable

No.
Au contraire...
In VB 5 and later running your project does not compile it: it runs the
interpreter. Only when you explicitly make the executable, the code is
actually compiled; and even then, you have the option of generating
p-code, which is, again, interpreted...
This is as opposed to Delphi which always compiles before running.
