Summary: You could be doing 2 things wrong...

There could be, I think, 2 possible reasons for why you aren't able
to set a breakpoint.

First, you've got to make sure SADE knows what program you debugging.
I keep a little PROC in SadeUserStartup for the current program I'm
working on, which looks something like this:

proc Launcher;
	directory 'UncleBoBo:BoBo:Projects:LauncherInstall:';
	sourcepath 'UncleBoBo:BoBo:Projects:LauncherInstall:';
	target 'LaunchInstallDebug';
	break main.(1);
	launch	'LaunchInstallDebug';
end;

Then I just type "Launcher" and it breaks at main.(1).  I think after
the target command, you can open a source file and set a breakpoint;
this would make sense, but I've found that SADE is not guaranteed to
make since (is it just me, or is printf really annoying?)

Another possible problem involves static functions in C.  I've found
that I can't seem to set a breakpoint in a static function until I'm
inside a global function in the same source file as the static function.

Hope this helps.
