I'm trying to debug a stubborn problem which only occurs at a customer
site. If I give the customer a debug version of the app, is there any
simple way they can get output from the TRACE statements, given that
they do not have VS installed? The app is a dialog-based MFC project,
built statically.

Use the Sysinternals.com DebugView.

Thanks, Doug--this worked. The only caveat for those trying it at home
is that Dbgview must be started before any app you want to monitor.

Note also that TRACE statements only work in the Debug versions, and redistributing Debug
versions of the library has legal implications. So be careful.
