Visual C++ 2005 - I'm not sure how to run my program, can someone help?

  1) Create an empty console project.

  2) Add a new C++ file to your project

  3) Add your source code there.

  4) To build, go to the build tab in the menu and choose to build.

  For more details, look at the msdn.microsoft.com help.

  Thank for your reply, it was really helpful.

  However, it doesnt show me how to create a simple 'hello world' program.

  Ayman, do you think you can lead me through, without the wizard on

  thank you!

  Take a look at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6765tta0.aspx describing the different projects and links to how to create such projects.

  You don't have to use the stdafx.h.

  Also, take a look at the following previous post that contains other good links

      cout << "Hello World! ";
    }}
