Under the common law, they are unrelated crimes.

Robbery is the intentional taking of the property (chattel) of another, from the victim's presence, and through force or threat of force, with the specific intent to deprive the victim of possession of the property. So, robbery is the taking, independent of where it occurs.

Burglary is the breaking and entering into the dwelling (or sometimes, some other building) of another, with the specific intent to commit a felony or theft therein. Burglary is the entering, coupled with the requisite intent.

The burglary crime is completed (or not) when the breaking and entering occur. The robbery occurs when there is the forceful taking. So, in a hypothetical scenario where a criminal breaks into a building to commit a robbery, the burglary is completed once the entry is done, which may be before the actual burglary has even started.
