or

using namespace std;

int main()
{
  cout << "Hello, world!\n";
}

This worked for me. Though novice myself and not that I can help much but which machine are you running on (x86 or something else)

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib\AMD64
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib\IA64

i tried to add 2nd location to option->VC++ directories->include lib->

but there is no option like include directory but i can find exclude directory

This is a guess but based on http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx scid=kb;en-us;154753, I think that you may have a #include<iostream.h> in your code - try #include<iostream> instead.

It is probably a case of not refering to the std namespace. The code should look like

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
  std::cout << "Hello, world!\n";
}

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
  cout << "Hello, world!\n";
}

I get three hits - the two you mention, and also one in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\lib. This last one is obviously the one you are missing. However, why it is missing, I cannot tell.

At least it is now some other files it is missing... I still think that somehow your settings for VC++ lib directories are messed up. If you search C:\Program Files\ for msvcprtd.lib what is the result

i tried a simple test program when i try to compile

i am getting
1>msvcirtd.lib(msvcirtd.dll) : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'IA64' conflicts with target machine type 'X86'

when i searched for that file i can get only 2 files under following folder
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib\AMD64
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib\IA64

i tried to add 2nd location to option->VC++ directories->include lib->

but still i am getting this error
do i need to have same file under x86.

You mean there's no place you can set include directories

Try and go to the Tools menu, then select Options. In the Options dialog, select Projects, then VC++ directories. In the upper right there's a drop down list labeled "Show directories for". In the drop down list, select the "Include files" item. This shows you where VC++ looks for include files.

Do a search for windows.h in the "C:\Program Files\" directory and add the directory in which windows.h resides to the include list.

i am running the x86

i used the same code :

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
  std::cout << "Hello, world!\n";
}

chose project as win32 -> windows appilcation ( but chose empty)

added .cPP file to the source as above 

but when i built i get following error.

1>msvcprtd.lib(msvcp60d.dll) : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'IA64' conflicts with target machine type 'X86'

Looking at http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/express/visualc/usingpsdk/default.aspx, step 3 is the problem. You should add

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\Include

to include directories, and

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\Lib

to lib directories.

(Assuming that C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\ is the directory where you installed PSDK)

i tried both the way

when i used :
std::cout << "Hello, world!\n"

i am getting following error:
error C2653: 'std' : is not a class or namespace name

then when i tried :
using namespace std;

i am getting following error:
error C2871: 'std' : a namespace with this name does not exist
