hello all

just started learning vb.net and i'm having problem with console
applications. according to the book i using when i put out the old 'Hello
from Visual Basic' thing i should be able to see it followed by a line
saying 'Press any key to continue'. however my console opens (i think
displays my 'Hello from Visual Basic' ) then closes immediatly.

thanks for any help you can give

Add a 'Console.Read()' after the calls to 'WriteLine'.
