     CodeView allows two types of single-stepping through a program:
     tracing into functions or stepping over functions.
 
     When you trace into a function, program execution steps through
     the source lines or assembly instructions of the function. Local
     variables for that function appear in the Local window, and
     watch variables and registers are updated after each step through
     the function.
 
     To trace into a function:
 
        ■ Press F8
 
        ■ Click <F8=Trace> in the status line with the left mouse
          button
       OR
        ■ Enter the Trace (T) command in the command window
