'No symbols Loaded'. Simple console application

Hi,
I havent coded in c++ in 2 years or so and just was writing a fairly simple console app to refresh myself. Its builds without errors and warnings but when i run it the program exits immediatley (cant insert breakpoints to see whats happening) and the following comes up in the debug window:

'Test1.exe': Loaded 'C:\Windows\system32\ntdll.dll', No symbols loaded.
'Test1.exe': Loaded 'C:\Windows\system32\ntdll.dll', No symbols loaded.
The program '[3088] Test1.exe: Native' has exited with code 0 (0x0).


The last time I used C++ I was using MS V6.0 and am using MS V.NET now. So I don't know if this is something to do with it. I.e. some of the #includes i am using. Cant find anything in the MSDN libraries.Can anybody help????please

Sorry just to add,
Inserting breakpoints outside my main file could let me see whats happening. My program basically runs exactly as i want but when the last function is called it just exists straight away. What do i do to make the console window stay open? (the programme takes no user input, no cin's so without putting in breakpoints i cant see it working)
any help is appreciated. regards

You can try putting a cin.get(); statement at the end of your program. This topic is discussed in the FAQ.

Thanks, I scanned the FAQ and missed it. Cheers for pointing both out.
