Simply set a break point at the beginning of the program and step through it using F11. You will be able to see your variables being set and everything. smile.gif

Btw Xing, that link is for the old debugger, he specifically said 2005.

I don't use any version of visual studio any more but AFAIR there's not much of change in basic debugging techniques.

I've tried setting a breakpoint at the start and running the program but the weired thing is i can't use any of the step functions as well as the quickwatch.They are all not "clickable".Is there something wrong with my settings or something else?Thanks

Maybe you should start it with debug and not run.
