Adding a Variable to the Watch List

You can use the Watch window to track the values of local and global variables, package variables, and form items that are available in the current execution context.

To add a variable to the Watch list:

  1. Display the Variables, Form Values or Global/System Variables window.
  2. Select the variable you wish to add to the Watch list (by single-clicking to highlight it).
  3. Choose Add to Watch from the pop-up menu (right-click in Windows).
  4. Display the Watch window.
    The current value of the variable is displayed if it is available in the current execution context. This value is updated as needed (displays in red) when application execution is suspended at a different location. If suspension occurs in a program unit where the variable is not defined, #### displays in the cell instead of a value.
