[Guest]

Hello....

I wanted to know if there was a way to write simple c code using visual .net?
I really want to get used to the ide but i'm not sure how to..

Any comments will be appreciated...

P.S: I really don't like pico nor emacs for that matter.

.net?
Yes.

I really want to get used to the ide but i'm not sure how to..

As the saying goes - just do it. <g>

From the menu

File->New->Blank Solution

Then

Click on the plus sign labelled "Visual C++ projects" in the top left
pane

Click the "Win32" folder

Click "Win32 console project" icon

Enter the base name of your project in the box and click OK

Now you have a project. Next

Click the Hyper-Link labelled "Application Settings"

Select the "Console Application" radio button and "Empty Project" check
box

Click Finish

Whew. At that point you have a solution with one project and _no_ files.

Now you begin adding files. From the project menu click "Add New Item" or
"Add existing item" depending on whether you are creating a new file or
reusing an old one.

P.S: I really don't like pico nor emacs for that matter.

Will
