+
+<p>During a debug session, you can display variable types, and change
+or disable variable values.</p>
+
+<p>To display variable type names:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>In Variables view, click the <strong>Show Type Names</strong> toggle button.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>To change a variable value while debugging:</p>
+
+<p>During a debug, you can change the value of a variable to test how your
+program handles a particular value or to speed through a loop.</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>In Variables view, right-click a variable, and select <strong>Change Value</strong>.</li>
+ <li>Type a value.</li>
+</ol>
+
+<p>To disable a variable value while debugging:</p>
+
+<p>You can disable a variable so that the debugger does not read the variable's
+value from the target. This is useful if the target is very sensitive or the
+variable is specified as volatile.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>In Variables view, right-click a variable, and select <strong>Disable</strong>.</li>
+</ul>
