What is the best way to visualize a DataTable while debugging?

Question

I have some very big DataTables, which I need to see their content while debugging.
Is there a better way to do that other than opening the Columns' and rows' lists Properties in the Watch panel?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Use the DataTable visualizer; hold your mouse over the variable and click on the magnifying glass this will open the DataTable visualizer.

Btw, there are more VS2010 visualizers for other actions. I really like the WPF Tree visualizer: hold your mouse on a WPF control and click the magnifying glass ;-)

Answer 2

Open the DataSet visualizer. Either hover over the variable in the source code or look at one of the variables in a debugger window (Locals, Auto, etc.) Then click the magnifying glass.
