# Data Type Preview

The Data Type Preview provides a preview of bytes at an address based on data types that you choose to view. As you move the cursor to different addresses, the Preview column will update with the appropriate representation for each data type. If the value in the Preview column represents a valid address, you can double-click on the Preview column and navigate to that address in the Listing.
