In the watch window whilst debugging in Sql Server 2012, we get to see the values of regular variables, we can look at xml in a special window and same with sql strings, but for a table variable it just says (table).

I'd really like to know if there is any way to peek inside that table variable at that moment and check on the contents.

**EDIT:**

I have discovered that Visual Studio (for a long time now), has had a "Table" visualizer alongside Xml, Html, and Text. This does not help me here, but it underscores the point I made originally that it is a very doable feature. I'm very disappointed in general with the Sql Server SSMS team vs the Visual Studio team. I think Visual Studio developers in Redmond ought to be forced every 5 years to do a "tour of duty" for 2 or 3 sprints on the SSMS team. They could help it sooo much if they did that.

Thank you.
