When debugging the app in C++ Builder 5, I am used to inspecting my objects by selecting Run | Inspect. For instance, I can step into a method and enter Alt-r-i and enter "this"; and I can inspect the entire object. Although Builder6 help tells me to select Run | Inspect to inspect objects; this option is not there in C++ Builder 6. What up?

We'll, it's there, just Run | Inspect, just above Evaluate/Modify. It's disabled when your program is running. If you've set a breakpoint and your program is halted, the option is enabled. Then you can also inspect a variable by positioning the mouse cursor above the variable and pressing 'CTRL'-left mouse button. In the evaluate window you can also select to inspect a variable (and you can select to watch it).

I checked and double checked, but "Run | Inspect" is just plain not there! The only factor I can currently think of is that I'm running the "personal edition". But it's hard to imagine that this most important of features would be removed based on edition. In Builder 5, it's just above the "Evaluate/Modify" option. Is "Run | Inspect" missing for anyone else out there?

Also my CodeGuard debug window is missing. I am running the Pro edition of BCB6, with Update 4 applied (build no 10.166), on Windows XP with SP1. I am running exactly the same version on other XP machines and the Inspect command is present. I haven't investigated further yet - but will need to do so soon, since the malfunctioning installation is on my fastest PC. Perhaps we can share any clues we get....

Since you're running the Pro edition, I guess that rules out an edition-specific issue. BTW, I'm also running with Update 4 on an XP machine. I have no other ideas at this time, but I'll let you know if any other evidence surfaces. Has anyone on TeamB seen this behavior?

Still no luck! Andrew , to answer your question as to whether I've installed ClassExplorer , I am doing only the "typical" install. Ed, I tried the repair option on install as well; but no luck (same as Andrew's experience). I performed an uninstall/reinstall; but still Run | Inspect still does not appear. Thinking I might have a permissions problem, I also relaxed the permissions on my disk drive and did an uninstall/reinstall cycle; still to no avail. Wim, I am installing under my user account, which has admin privilege. I'm intrigued as to why this problem exists. That is, what's special about inspecting an object that would make it an inaccesible option? Regards, stevew FYI, I'm running WinXP (latest updates); Builder6 Personal; Problem is there with or without update4.
