Am i correct in understanding that the only way to execute a VC++ program after compiling is ctrl + F5?

I noticied there was no longer a executing <filename> on the Build menu from VC 6, so doing some searching only produced ctrl+F5 in the book I am reading on online?

Can anyone confirm?
 
If you mean that little red exclaimation mark button... They took it out of the default install. You need to right-click the toolbar and add it back by customizing your buttons (although now it's a green triangle instead of an exclaimation mark).
 
Ctrl-F5 - run without debugging
F5 - run in debug mode

Are you sure you want Ctrl-F5?
 
Well I would want both (debug and without). I just thought it funny how it wasn't quite apparent after installation -> hopefully I can find a way to add a gui button to the menu?
