An app uses FILE(lcFile) to determine if a particular routine is contained in the app/exe or must be searched for elsewhere.

While tracing, IF FILE(lcFile) succeeds, but FILE(lcFile) shows false in the watch window.

In some sense this is logical, because the app environment is slightly different from that of the developer, but it had us very confused.

Is this a bug of how the watch window works?

TIA,

Alex
