visual studio .net debugging: Hi,

Would you please tell me the way to find the literal string in the source code from the binary (exe) file?

Thanks you very much,

Hi, Trojan

Microsoft does not have any tools that will do this out of the box. You
can read an EXE and search it for a string, but there is no guarantee that
the string will appear in the same form that it appears in your source.

Thank you for choosing the MSDN Managed Newsgroups,

For very rudimentary search, you can open the binary in VS using the "Binary
Editor" and search for the string literal.
