Re: Show Variable Contents in Debug

Hi Adam -

Something happened then way I wanted it to...not sure why. I switched from
listing to statement view, fast viewed the variables view, brought it back
up, and there were my variables. I'm not sure what I did, but it worked.

Thanks!

The Variables view has some problems - one specifically is that it doesn't
currently show global variables when the current debugging line is in a
subprocedure.  IBM is aware of this and I believe it is being worked on.

This _should_ add the variable to the 'Monitors' view and make the
Monitors view visiable.  The monitors view is normally in the same pane as
the Variables view.  Try bringing up the Monitors view and see if your
variable is there - if not, see if you can add it manually (using the '+'
button).

HTH,
Adam
