1. Use the arrow keys to select Break When Expression has
Changed.
2. Press TAB to move the cursor to the Expression box. Type an
expression that evaluates to an address. The expression can
be an address in <segment>:<offset> form, or it can be an
expression involving variables in your program.
3. If you want execution to break when a range of memory changes,
press TAB to move the cursor to the Length box and type the
size of the range. The range is the number you type,
multiplied by the number of bytes occupied by the variable
you are watching.
4. If you want CodeView to pass over the breakpoint a given
number of times, press TAB to move the cursor to the Pass
Count box. Type the number of times to pass over the
breakpoint.
5. If you want CodeView to execute commands after execution
breaks, press TAB to move the cursor to the Commands box.
Type the commands you want to execute.
6. Press TAB to move the cursor to <OK>, and press ENTER.
