    Beta C++ Visual
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the challenges faced by a new programmer using Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition Beta 2, particularly regarding the compilation process. The user is unable to find a compile button and expresses frustration over the lack of help resources. Other participants suggest looking under the 'build' menu for compilation options and mention that the interface may differ from other versions of Visual C++. They also recommend trying the F9 key as a potential shortcut for compiling. The conversation highlights the confusion that can arise from different software versions and the need for clearer guidance for beginners in programming.

There should be a comile button if you got the package with the compiler.
 
which i did, but there's no 'compile' button
 
Is there a 'help' button? :-p
 
yep, no help there...
 
You should sue for false advertising.
 
hmmm...
 
It might be under 'build' or you might not be using the program right :-P
 
I don't know about the specific version you're using, but mine (VC++ 6.0 Professional Edition) looks similar to this screen shot. See if this helps any..

I can't imagine that it would be that much different.
