I have two projects:
a) a large class library which is a solution with many projects and built as a single assembly
b) a web project, again with a solution and several projects
While debugging (b) I want to step into (a). I have two instances of visual studio 2005 open, one with each solution.
How do i get a break point to hit in (a)
debugging - step into another project from web project ?

Running multiple instances of VS does not help you with debugging. Ideally place both the class library and the web project in the same solution and then you can debug the web app and step into the library.
Alternatively if you can't combine the projects into one solution then you can build a debug version of the class library and then add it as a reference in the web app. You can then set a breakpoint on the library method and step into it. VS will ask you to find the source but otherwise you'll be debugging. For this to work the PDB for the library must be accessible.
