go to properties, and there is a place (project properties), anyway, under
general for the type of app. choose console.
your program will look like this:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(void) {
cout << "Hello world!\n" << endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
basically, when use using namespace, it checks for functions in the namespace.
I don't know if you've gotten to functions, but all a namespace is, is a way of
organizing. It can hold classes, functions, structures, etc. std:: is just
refering to the cout found under namespace std.
the system command will say "press any key to continue."
after that returns, the program will finish.
If you don't want to use system("pause") you can run the program from a command
prompt (command.com, or cmd.exe)
}

And instead of using std::
Try "using namespace std;" as a header

Nevermind. I figured it out. I had already typed my source code in,
and I guess the console mode application is not available from the New
Project From Existing File method. I put the book's
std::cout << "Hello, world!" << std::endl;
into the int _tmain skeleton created by VC++. It built and ran, I
assume correctly. The terminal window went away too quickly for me to
actually tell, but I did see a terminal window...
