Can you use a multimeter on a breadboard?  ??? If so, how do you do so?

I just put a peice of bare wire into one of the breadboard holes and hold the other end to one of the multimeter leads. Can't think of any easier way of doing it.

I usually take a pin or something and stick it into one of the holes in the breadboard. Instant contacts

I just wrap wire around the multimeter leads and then stick the other end of the wires into the holes of the breadboard kinda like hazzer ;D
