I am using Dev-C++ under Windows 8 and wanted to change the watch window format to hexadecimal. I could not figure out how to do this. Does any body know whether this is possible? Is Code::Blocks any better at this feature.:confused:

code::blocks is a better IDE.
It's actively developed, has a forum and lots of online help.
Code::Blocks - Index
Main Page - CodeBlocks
dev-c++ was abandoned long ago (last tested on Win2K IIRC). How many MS operating systems have come and gone between then and your win8 ?
The only way your situation could be worse is if you were still using TurboC.
Actually, there is current, active development, under the name Orwell Dev-C++. I used Dev-C++ back in the day, and found it to be lacking in features. Code::Blocks is far superior, as are Eclipse and NetBeans. For developing on windows, though, you should really be using Visual Studio.Quote:

Visual studio express versions are free (possibly in exchange for an email address).
Visual Studio 2013 Professional is right around $500USD. You get a ton of stuff that express doesn't come with, and it's very helpful if you can justify the cost.
