  What Martin said.

  Please restore the settings. The General | Empty Project is all you need for making a standard C/C++ console application.

  I suggest you find one of the standard simple programs (like "Hello World") that are all over the place to confirm that your settings are working.

  Also, when the compilation succeeds, it is important to know that the way to execute it from within Visual C++ 2005 is with Ctrl+F5. Otherwise, the console window will be created and disappear as soon as the program ends, and that may be too fast to observe.

  i found out the problem was due to a a library i was using, i needed to add,

  #define USE_CONSOLE

  so now its fixed.

  You have no main function in your program code. Thas the problem. Every C/C++ console program needs a main function.
