Hi Ronnie,

I think you can use Macro in VS2005 to do this. In the "Samples" macro
project, you will find a module named "VSDebugger", there's a sample macro
called "AttachToCalc" that demonstrates how to attach to calc.exe:

   ' This subroutine attaches to calc.exe if it is running.
   Sub AttachToCalc()
       Dim attached As Boolean = False
       Dim proc As EnvDTE.Process

       For Each proc In DTE.Debugger.LocalProcesses
           If (Right(proc.Name, 8) = "calc.exe") Then
               proc.Attach()
               attached = True
               Exit For
           End If
       Next

       If attached = False Then
           MsgBox("calc.exe is not running")
       End If

   End Sub

You can use DTE.Debugger.Go(false) to enter debug mode and wait for 10
seconds, then use above approach to attach your target process.

Hope this helps.
