Let’s have a VBA code that takes two integers as variables A and B, and returns their sum in variable C.

Sub Debug_Print()

A = 10

B = 15

C = A + B

End Sub

Now to print the value of C in the Immediate window, you have to insert this line.

Debug.Print C

Now, if you run the code, you’ll find the value of C (10+15 = 25) in the Immediate window.

C = A + B

Break mode means, while running the code, that particular line won’t be executed.

Now, we can debug print the value of any variable in the Immediate window.
