That did it, that's just what I was looking for, a quick start explanation. Thanks so much. After a couple tries, it's working. I wonder how many more times I'll see 1:30 AM and 7 AM in the same morning because of this class lol, actually I had one last semester that 5 AM and 7 AM saw the end and beginning of my work on a project. Anyway, I really appreciate that. I'm sure I'll have more questions, but for now, that did it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Littlefield, Tyler" <compgeek13@xxxxxxxxx>

sorry. missed that. thought you were trying to help us problemsolve. Can you tell us what you're doing? I can help better that way. 
or... open up vs2005.
hit control+shift+n, and put in a name for your app.
Select win32 console, hit enter, and then tab to next.
Select console again, and check the box that says "empty project."
hit finish.
go to project, and add new item.
Select c++ file, and title it main.cpp or something.
Put the code I gave you in there, hit control+s, and then alt+b.
hit enter on the first option; it should compile fine.
If you kept the default settings, your project will be in:
[documents]\visual studio...\projects\app_name\debug.
If you wish to get a pause, so the exe won't just stop or close or you won't have to use command, use the below code. 
#include <iostream>
int main(void) {
std::cout << "Hello world!\n" << std::endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
}
Thanks,
Tyler Littlefield.

Someone asked for one, what you said though is the reason I didn't offer at first. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Littlefield, Tyler" <compgeek13@xxxxxxxxx>

I've tried so many, it's not even funny including the example emailed to me via the list. I'm not getting any errors I know of but there's got to be something I'd hope since it only worked once. Remind me again, how to do a screen shot? It's been a long time, I very seldom struggle like this. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin Slack" <m.g.slack@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi John,
I can't tell from what you've said whether the compiler is producing any error messages when you try to compile. Could you copy and paste the source code you have writtten into your next email please? Also tell us what you have called the file it is in.

OK, I tried that one, still no luck. There's something, in common I'm guessing, with all the programs I've tried that I'm missing. Can some one, anyone give me a walk through, a description, something to how to use 1 of these programs, the basics for most of them, just something? Off list is fine, n1umj@xxxxxxxxxxx will get me. I've tried 5 programs now, 4 of which I still have though I think 2 are exactly the same thing. I just need something to get me started because I don't know the first thing about these programs and I'm obviously not going to stumble in to what I'm doing wrong. I'm not a programmer, but need this class for school. I work on the hardware site of things where I can put my hands on things and build computers. I'm already at the point I never want to see c ever again but besides this class my major isn't being too cruel to me yet so I'd like to just get through it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "inthaneelf" <inthaneelf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I recommend vc++. Also, not everything found on the net will work. copying and pasting or just oepning and compiling won't work. 
Try this.
#include <iostream>
int main(void) {
std::cout << "Hello world!\n" << std::endl;
return 0;
}
it's a simple hello world program, which should compile. dev-cpp requires a lot of jaws cursor. I recommend using vc++ 2005. 
HTH,
Thanks,
Tyler Littlefield.

I downloaded DevC and I got it to work once. I guess a lot of people on this list like it, hopefully some one can get me on the right track. I'm getting close to my first assignment in this class and I'm sure I don't belong in this class but I'm stuck with it now. If anyone can offer me any help, I got it to compile 1 program once, after that it won't do it. I can't find any errors or anything. If I fail the class I can't get funding to take it again, nor can I in my wildest dreams afford to take it again so I have to get it right now.
