What is the usage of immediate window? I'm using VS2008

isn't it for using function and subroutines while you are debugging? like VB? when I try to use simple MAXVAL it says: "Undefined variable maxval"!!! so practically it's not usable for ifort?

Correct - it's not usable for Fortran code.

Sorry, I don't find that correct. I am using the Immediate Window quite often (while debugging).
For example you can enter a local variable's name and its current value is output. So, I am able to compare that value with a later one, which might be changed in a loop (so I don't have to write it down to track changes). You can also do calculations.

Just try and play
