Data breakpoints don't seem to work in BDS4

Hi,
Has anyone tried to set a Data Breakpoint on a variable in BCB 2006?
We have tried several times in several projects and the de{*word*81} never stops
when the data variable is changed.
Try:-
1) Creating a form
2) Declare an int variable.
3) Add a couple of buttons that change the value.
4) Put a breakpoint on the form creation and run the application.
5) Goto the breakpoints window and add a Data breakpoint with the Variable
name and size of 4 bytes.
6) Run the application again and click the buttons.
7) The de{*word*81} doesn't stop.
We have Update 2 installed, this does work in BCB 5,6.
Thanks
Simon

Hi Simon,
I'm also using Update 2 and it work fine for me. Did you make sure the
breakpoint was enabled?

Yes the breakpoint was enabled. We've also had several long term C++ Builder
developers look at the problem and all report the same. Our example is
slightly more complicated as we have multiple threads, I wonder if that's
something to do with it.

That may be, I tested on a single-threaded test app.
