Well, I didn't know, so I looked it up before posting.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burglary> Although rarely listed as an element, the common law required that "entry occur as a consequence of the breaking".[7] For example, if a wrongdoer partially opens a window with a pry bar—but then notices an open door, which he uses to enter the dwelling, there is no burglary under common law.
There are more results if you search for "breaking and entering", it was all pretty consistent.
