Thanks for your reply Buck.
I should have also added that I can't even add variables to the monitor either.
The program object has Debug Data *yes
Could it be related to the size of the program.
I'm only guessing but someone in the team has suggested that may be the cause.

I am debugging a rather large program on a remote system.
I can step through the program but I can't display any variable values.
Normally when I debug a program, RDi switches to the Debug
Perspective. In the Debug Perspective, the Debug Editor pane
displays. It is this Debug Editor which has the hover functionality,
etc. If I were to edit a PC text file from within the Debug
Perspective, I would be using the Text Editor.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the program being debugged be
compiled with a debug view, and that sometimes surprises me.
I myself tend to add variables to a Monitor; I like that they turn red
when they change. That often gives me a clue where my logical error
is when I see a whole bunch of my monitors light up at the moment I
don't expect them to. Right click, Monitor Expression.
