    Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition

    I downloaded this last night and it seems a lot more complicated than what I am used to, anyone able to give me a basic run down on how to do the simplest of tasks.

    Compiler configuration questions are best directed to the Tech board. Moved.

    edit:

    It should have a cut down version of msdn which should get you started.

    If you're interested in windows programming then this page may be of interest:

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/ex...k/default.aspx

    Otherwise, File menu --> new --> project... then pick whatever you want.

    Oh right thanks. I might also look into Code::blocks, it looks simpler to use.

    I can't see how to do anything, but I like the look of code::blocks, so I will just stick with that.

    How would I make code::blocks behave like Dev-C++ s I would rather that when executing a program it will close with my code and doesn;t say Press [ENTER] To Continue.

    Documentation and browsing through the settings will help a lot more than us answering your question.
