Which version of VS are you using?

Newer versions (2005 and later IIRC) have good support for viewing STL
container objects intelligently.

I am using VC6, how to view the contents of map using VC6 in quick watch, if
not possible what is the easiest way to look for?

As far as I know there is no easy way in VC6 - unless some 3'rd party
has written an autoexp.dat entry to do it. Other than that you just
have to use the debugger to drill down into the internal structures -
it's painful, which is why the newer versions are so much nicer in
that respect.
