I've had to determine the answer to this question in a number of
different applications that I've worked on. Most recently it was
Visual Studio .Net 2003.
What I ended up doing was creating a simple function called RunningInDevMode and gave it this one line of code:
Return System.Diagnostics.Debugger.IsAttached()
It has been working wonderfully and is better than the VB6 hack I used:
On Error GoTo EH:
Debug.Print 1/0
RunningInDevMode = False
Exit Function
EH:
RunningInDevMode = True
