I'm in visual studio 2008, and need to unload a specific module.
In windbg this would be accomplished with
.reload -u
but I can't find it's counterpart in VS, or any functionality relating to reloading)
Thanks!

In Visual Studio, open Tools > Options > Debugging > Symbols (or Debug > Options > Symbols).
You can force symbol loading to occur by using the /f option or by issuing an ld (Load Symbols) command. The . reload command is useful if the system stops responding (that is, crashes), which might cause you to lose symbols for the target computer that is being debugged.
In a developer command prompt, you can use the mspdbcmf.exe tool to generate a full PDB from this limited PDB. In Visual Studio, use the Project or Build menu items for generating a full PDB file to create a full PDB for the project or solution.
A program database file (extension . pdb) is a binary file that contains type and symbolic debugging information gathered over the course of compiling and linking the project. A PDB file is created when you compile a C/C++ program with /ZI or /Zi or a Visual Basic, Visual C#, or JScript program with the /debug option.
apparently does not exist. Please correct me if that's wrong...
