Preprocessor in C# is not working correctly

Question

#if(DEBUG)
    ......Code......
#else
    ......Code......
#endif

I have some code like this. If my application is running in Debug mode it should execute the #if(DEBUG) part, if it is running in Release mode it should execute the #else part. However, it is only executing the #if(DEBUG) part no matter which mode it is running in.

Am using WPF application with VS2010

Can anyone help me?

For Release they should look like this

Can you verify that this is the case, and let us know if it is?
If not, what is there for each configuration?
