Locals window
Automatically displays all of the declared variables in the current procedure and their values.
When the Locals window is visible, it is automatically updated every time there is a change from run time to break mode or you navigate in the stack display.
You can:
Resize the column headers by dragging the border to the right or the left.
Close the window by clicking the Close box. If the Close box is not visible, double-click the title bar to make the Close box visible, and then select it.

| Value | Lists the value of the variable. When you click a value in the Value column, the cursor changes to an I-beam. You can edit a value and then press ENTER, the UP ARROW key, the DOWN ARROW key, TAB, SHIFT+TAB, or click on the screen to validate the change. If the value is illegal, the Edit field remains active and the value is highlighted. A message box describing the error also appears. Cancel a change by pressing ESC. All numeric variables must have a value listed. String variables can have an empty Value list. Variables that contain subvariables can be expanded and collapsed. Collapsed variables don't display a value, but each subvariable does. The expand icon  and the collapse icon  appear to the left of the variable. |
