Either a Precompiled header problem or a missing closing curly.

then click new project>>> then click Visual C++ Projects>>>then click win32 console project..... i click application settings>>> check off empty project>>> now im in project view... i see to my right source files folder... i right click and choose "new item" then i pick c++ source file from the list...
hmm. this seems to have worked. oh well, guess i figured it out for myself. going and checking off start as empty project was my problem.
ps what does (int argc, char **argv) after main do?

argc = 2 argv[0] = "hi" argv[1] = "there"
Incorrect. argv[0] is always the name of the program.
argc is 3 argv[0] is "test.exe" argv[1] is "hi" argv[2] is "there"
