During debugging, when I pull up QuickWatch and go copy and paste for example: strlen(str) - 1 It tells me that: strlen(str) - 1 CXX0017: Error: symbol "strlen" not found

What do I need to set in Visual Studio to remedy this issue?

Hope that helps.

thanks, I found that as well, I thought there might be a better way, such as setting some library settings..

Well, after another bit of googling i, personally, came to the result, that there seems to be no other way. Maybe this is because you're using a CRT function and the debugger can handle only library functions out of the box. So you'll have to point the direction of the function to the debugger.
