First time user today - have a build problem

Hi all - this very elementary so I aplogise up front. I have downloaded Patrice Pelland's Build a Program Now and have also got his code samples and have loaded the My First Console App. However I am unable to use the Build buttons which (once I got them displayed as they aren't default) are greyed out and consequently the code doesn't compile. There are no errors as I imported the source from my HD. I'm sure I've missed something basic.

Thanks for any help...
