    Hi,

    I have just tried dev-cpp and the following works:

    1) open ide >> file >> new >> project >> c++ project >> console application.

    2) copy the following code into the ide:

    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    using std::cout;
    using std::endl;
    
    
    int main ()
    {
        cout << "hello mike!" << endl;
        cout << "press enter key to exit!!" << endl;
        system("PAUSE");
        return 0;
    }
    3) select compile/ run >> save text file as main2.cpp

    4) select compile/ run >> dos window should pop up

    5) forget what i said about the c project - sorry

    To use system, #include <cstdlib> and reference it as std::system.

    Better yet, get an IDE that doesn't require stupid hacks to keep the console open.
    All the buzzt!

    I agree with corned, you should definitely get a better IDE. (I use codeblocks.)

    Try adding this one, I think it's included in <iostream>:

    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    using std::cout;
    using std::endl;
    
    
    int main ()
    {
        cout << "hello mike!" << endl;
        cout << "press enter key to exit!!" << endl;
        cin.get();
        cin.ignore();
        return 0;
    }
