Hi James, There is nothing like CFDUMP built into .NET outside of the VS debugger. Unfortunately, I have also never seen one of these from a third party either and have pined for one more than once. Part of the problem is that whereas CF has a rather limited set of types, the types available in .NET are practically infinite, so it's a much more difficult task.
That said, I have actually been kicking around an autodump idea in my head that would use reflection to figure out what's what and dump it out. I'm really not sure how ultimately useful it would be, however, since it's often just easier to use the VS debugger, and the gains of having an autodump are probably not exceeded by the time it would take to build it. You might want to look into using the Trace feature of ASP.NET. You can write strings out to the trace, and even though it's not going to tell you what *all* of your variables are, you can write out selected bits of information and see it at the end of the request.

I know I am probably going to get loads of responses asking me why bother when I can examine variable contents in VS but there are times when I just want to run a page on the server that dumps out a variable without me needing to fire up VS all the time. -- Jay No virus found in this outgoing message.
