    Ofcourse it does. It comes with more project spaces than any compiler, it's the Microsoft Windows standard compiler.
    I compile code with:
    Visual Studio.NET beta2

    A program that will build you a setup app for others to install your program on their PC. I know I make no sense whatsoever but does that help some?

    Yeah, that's what s_c and Dean were both talking about. Dev-C++ has one too - you just have to d/l a 240K file off the website

    Question InstallShield

    If you mean InstallShield, then it's only available with the professional edition of MSVC and above.

    There's nothing that comes with the IDE (unless they've changed the features) but you can probably download an freeware version. Do a search on goggle for 'installer'.
