Cool, you can suppress the ASSERT GUI handling and have the assertion text write to a file.

<system.diagnostics>
<assert assertuienabled="false" logfilename="c:\TEMP\Debug.log" />
</system.diagnostics>

In this case, your app will continue running, as if you clicked "ignore" in the assertion dialog box. To override this behavior,

Implement a trace listener, override Fail() and call
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break()
