Is there anyway to quickly output the contents of a variable to a console window (or something) in an MFC Single Document Interface application? I''m currently using a MessageBox() but it''s bit annoying really. If I could just dump these variables to a debug window and look at it all afterwards, that would be perfect. Many thanks, Eight

use the TRACE macros (since you''re using MFC). it is just a convienient wrapper around OutputDebugMessage() that allows you to use printf like arguments:

TRACE( "the value is %d\n", value );

some people think i''m crazy, some people know i am

That does just the job.

Cheers Crazy.

does TRACE work for regular win32 too? or what? i hate to have to do ascii conversions when using OutputDebugMessage()
