Should be under the Debug menu, or use F5. There is also a button that looks
like a Play button in the toolbar that will run your compiled program.

Must be an old version that doesn't support C++. You should *have* to worry
about what constructs to use on a different compiler... if it's standards

Can you show your final code and what you mean by putting parenthesis around
