Hello Jon,

On the debug comman line enter:

Eval pointerName:c lengthToView

e.g. eval dataarea:c 20 will show the first 20 characters of the string referened by the pointer. I think for C programs you can also use S as the option which I guess takes note of the null termination. Not sure. Read the help text for the debugger to ase all options.

Thanks a lot!

Hmm.

Trying some of these, I'm getting always getting error CPF7E27 "Formatting error".
