Debugging C++ (Atl) code with Visual Studio 2005

Hi,

I have a strange issue with debugging a C++ (atl) .dll using VS 2005.
The .dll was built in debug mode (using VS6) and I have the .pdb file.
I am able to get the VS 2005 debugger to break at the breakpoint and I
can step through the code. The issue is that I cannot view any of the
variables in the watch - It comes up with "Error symbol not found".

>>From this file if I step into code that is a straight c .dll I see all
the variables just fine.

I thought it was an issue with symbols so I did set up the symbol
location to be "http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols"; but this
did not help.

Any one else got any ideas? Any help would be appreciated.
