When you need this much guidance, you *really* need to pay attention to everything.

Maybe this will help?

I left the name as <Enter_name> location: C:\Documents and Settings\baseball\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects Solution: Create new solution Create directory for solution is unchecked

Win32 to the left is selected and to the right Win32 Console Application is selected.

I get the following message. Yes, I should of said that from the beginning.

Your project requires a unique name. Please enter a unique name in the Name field.

I did give it a proper name. The member like 3 posts ago said I didn't follow the steps. Sure I did. I done what step 4 said. My name of chose was C Programming.c

What other name do you want me to give it?

Well, if you called it "C Programming.c" when the tutorial step 4 said to call it "AddCalc", it's not going to be a big problem for us -- but you need to remember that every time in the future when they say "AddCalc" you'll have to translate that to "C Programming.c"

I just signed up for this forum and this is great. I am learning from K&R and see nothing about what this guy was talking about It is one of the best programming books I have ever read; I don't know what his problem is with it.

Well, actually I have a couple of guesses

Wow... that problem is finally be addressed... FINALLY. And yes, I found it amusing too. So is it safe to say that the record is topping off at 83 posts for "How do I make a 'Hello world.' app?"
