Default Stop Executing when build failed

Hi

Somehow my Visual Studio 2005 started running my application when the build failed. It runs the last succesfull build. I can not get this to show message that the build failed and it will not run. It used to ask wheether it should run the last build.
Can someone please tell me how and where to set this back?

Thanks

Under Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> Build and Run look for the drop down list "On Run, when build or deployment errors occur:". Change it back to "Do not launch" or "Prompt to launch". You probably inadvertently hit the "Do not ask me this again" check box in the "Prompt to launch" dialog.

Also, under "Projects and Solutions -> General" you can check the "Always show Error List if build finishes with errors" option.
