Q: 

How to monitor memory usage for managed/unmanaged code

I have an application that is built in C# .NET. It uses excel as a presentation layer and unmanged C++ as a processing engine. Is there a tool I can use to check for memory leaks for each component?

+1  A: 

AQTime will instrument both managed and unmanaged code. I have used it successfully to find memory leaks in managed/unmanaged project.

I'm not sure this would work. The C++ code is a dll that is called from the .NET application, so I can not check independently.

I should probably add, I do not have access to the source code.

Right, but you can see unmanaged memory allocations and view the call stack to find out where they're coming from (ie, what chain in your code is inducing the allocation)
