Currently I'm using the Community version of Visual Studio and having trouble finding the Watch Window or its equivalent. In previous versions of Express studio there was the option to open the Watch Window in the Debug dropdown.
It's available from Debug | Windows | Watch | Watch 1 or Ctrl + Alt + W + 1. There are 4 watch windows in Visual Studio, which you can use in different contexts (Watch 1, Watch 2, etc.). Any expression can be entered into the watch window.
You can also go to Debug > Windows > Watch > and then select the watch window you want to see.
The Watch Window lets you keep an eye on cells across multiple sheets and books in a single pane. You can use it to check the values and formulas in cells that are not visible in the active worksheet, as well as inspect, audit, or confirm formula calculations and results in large worksheets.
The Watch, Local, Auto, and all Debug related windows will only appear in the menu if the debugger is currently debugging a program. This has been changed in Visual Studio 2013.
That's all you need to do.
I think that Ctrl+Alt+Q will bring up the Watch window (default key bindings). Menu wise it is located under Debug→Windows→Watch→4 options listed
