1) Open Visual Studio
2) Create a new solution
3) Add your source (cpp file(s)) to the project via the "project | add existing item" menu option
4) Select "Build Solution" from the menu.


If there were no errors it'll create an exe you can run. Or instead of manually running the exe you can select "Debug | Start Debugging" to have visual studio launch the program for you.
