define DEBUG symbol on a VS2010 Website?

Question

I can't find where this setting is

#if !DEBUG
//            some code
#endif

when I change the configuration dropdown from debug to release, I see no changes in my code, which suggests that my DEBUG symbol is not defined

EDIT

I do not see the setting in the Buid screen as Mark suggests:

Not sure what you are asking here? Can you rephrase? – Gregory A Beamer Feb 02 '11 at 19:02 — Gregory A Beamer, Feb 02 '11 at 19:02

If you go to the properties on the project (the website), go to the Build tab and make sure Define DEBUG constant is checked.

This setting can be changed for each build configuration.

In Web.config, change the compilation section to:

<compilation debug="false">

or

<compilation debug="true">

Worked for me, but it's annoying there is no option in the build screen.

If Mark's answer doesn't do it, try changing to

#ifndef DEBUG

 /* ... */

#endif

or optionally

#if !defined(DEBUG)

 /* ... */

#endif

and see if that helps?
