Sure, I do it all the time with MSVC 6.  As Greg said,
just fetch the dav source and the latest Apache source.
You can build a debug version from the command line with:

nmake /f mod_dav.mak CFG=debug

Specify the path to your Apache source directory
(if it is not \apache-1.3) with APACHE=\path\to\apache

The build from the command line is more flexible than 
the gui since you can override the path to Apache.

After you've built mod_dav,

Open the mod_dav .dsp file.
Build->set active configuration->mod_dav Debug
Project->settings:
  update the following debug project settings:
    Debug Tab:
      1) Executable for debug session (\Server\Apache.exe etc);
      2) Working directory (\Server etc);
      3) Program arguments (-X).
    Link Tab:
      1) Output filename (\Server\modules\mod_dav.dll)

Assuming you have copied the two expat dlls to \Server,
and that your \Server\conf\httpd.conf has dav configured,
build mod_dav once more to make sure a debug version is
in your \Server tree.  Then set a breakpoint in, say,
dav_handler and click start.

If Apache loads and immediately exists, try starting it
from the command line; you most likely have a config problem.

If you get a gpf, try building debug versions of apache.exe
and apachecore.dll, replacing the ones in \Server with them.
I don't think this is required, though.

Debug away.

Keith
