Causes the debugger to break on every instruction that writes to and modifies the value of the location indicated by the address expression. The address expression is typically a variable name. The SET BREAK/MODIFY command acts exactly like a SET WATCH command and operates under the same restrictions. If you specify an absolute address for the address expression, the debugger might not be able to associate the address with a particular data object. In this case, the debugger uses a default length of 4 bytes. You can change this length, however, by setting the type to either WORD (SET TYPE WORD, which changes the default length to 2 bytes) or BYTE (SET TYPE BYTE, which changes the default length to 1 byte). SET TYPE LONGWORD restores the default length of 4 bytes.
