Help creating an executable from a .cpp

[B. Williams]

Will someone tell me know how to create an executable file from a .cpp file? I am using Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Windows XP SP2.

Thanks

Please don't Post using hyper text.

The following is an executable if you compile it.

// test.cpp
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
std::cout << "hello!\n";
}

In fact, all you need is

int main()
{
}

I would like to apologize for the html post. Thans for your assistance.
After I compiled it, I found the .exe in the debug folder.
