This article was previously published under Q78856 SUMMARY
In the Visual Workbench Integrated Debugger, when you display an array in the Watch window, the array
appears as if it was a pointer (that is, no brackets appear after the
name). However, if you expand the watch value, the debugger displays all
the elements of the array, not only the first element as occurs with
pointers.
