Is it possible to debug an application even with build errors?

This may not be the most appropriate forum to post in, but I couldn't find a better alternative, so I apologize in advance if this post is misplaced.

My question is, in Visual Studio 2008 and 2010, is it possible to hit F5 and debug an application even though there are build errors? Can't I make Visual Studio just ignore those build errors and let it crash when the error comes somewhere in the debugging process? I'm just wondering because I know Eclipse can do this.

All insight is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Kinda depends on what the errors are. If the file can't be found, then how can it run - for example.

Basically you can't run what you can't compile.

Why run it even though there are errors. Fix the errors and go on from there.
