Cant compile! 1

[JoeeT]

Hi there,

I am using Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition, downloaded from the site.
I want to compile a project, but when try to select

Build -> Compile, the option to compile is greyed out.

Does anybody have any idea why?

Thanks in advance

Check your solution explorer. The things that are highlighted depend on what has been selected.
1) To build the whole solution, click build solution
2) To build the project, right click on the project in the solution explorer and select Build Project Only
3) To compile a file, right click on the file in the solution explorer and select compile.
