Visual C++ output window

[doleczki]

Hi, i am really really new to C++, i'm using Visual C++ 2008 express edition. I'm trying to print a word on screen. its very simple program, but i can't see the output window, it disappears right after i run the program. How can i see the word im trying to print? and do i have to include <iostream> in my program?

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>

int main()

{
	std::cout << "Welcome to C++!\n";

	return 0;

Starting your project (program) with the menu "debug->start without debugging" or ctrl+F5 will pause the output window on program exit.

or call system ("pause"); just before returning from main.
