While stepping through some code, when I try to display a DataTable
with VS's custom viewer (using the little magnifier), it says "Could
not load this custom viewer".

It works well with other languages.

Is there any way to fix this problem?

I'm using VS2013 and I guess the f# tools that shipped with it
(haven't installed the new release of this yet).

Thanks for your help.

I receive the same error for both F# and C#. A web search suggests this a problem with Visual Studio.

I was able to open a visualizer by first adding the DataTable to a DataSet, and then viewing the DataSet.

I actually can't visualize a dataset nor the table while both work in C#.

Using Visual Studio 2015 Professional.

let a = new System.Data.DataSet()
let b = a.Tables.Add("b")
b

I can't inspect a nor b while stepping through this code.
