Not sure how much sense that title makes, but the issue that I am running into is that when I begin debugging a project (XYZ) a page from a completely different project (ABC), that is in a different solution will pop up when it hits an exception.

These are two totally different projects that contain custom code that is being run against the same SharePoint instance. I took a screen shot of what is going on:

enter image description here

The tab that is selected has popped up and thrown a null reference exception, but if you look in my solution explorer you will see that this file does not exist there. Why would something like this happen?

I would add Ctrl-Alt-E normally brings up the dialog for controlling what exceptions Visual Studio breaks on, and in what conditions. I find breaking on any thrown exception can be useful during development/debugging. – Andy Burns May 21 '12 at 10:35
