Console won't display

I can't get my console to disply vb.net code, like: Console.Write ("Enter Amount: "), when I run good code from a vb.net IDE. I can compile and execute the same code from the command line with references and it works great.

What do I need to do to get a console to display and show the code?

Are you simply hitting F5 to run the EXE? What do you see? The console
*never* even shows up? Are you sure you have a console app there?

Solution: It is a VBProj properties setting: Apparently the default is Windows Display. Go to the VBProj Properties > Common Properties > General > Output Type > select Console Application.
