If you write something like Console.Writeline("hello"); You need to add a
Console.Read() as last line so the Console windows does not write hello and
close (it closes automatically in debug mode after it runs.) The
Console.Read or Console.Readline will wait for user input (i.e. enter)
before closing so you can see what you output to console. HTH

> I'm a complete newbie at programming.  I chose to learn C# as my
programming language.  Every book I purchase starts with console
applications.  Each time I try to run the apps that I build, it will only
display for a few seconds then it will disappear?  I'm running Windows XP
and have VS.net.  Is there some way that I can view the output of my console
applications with out it shutting off on me?  I'm getting discouraged
because I want to build Windows apps and not console apps right now?  I
can't seem to run any command line apps.  I'm stuck because these books
teach you the basics of the language using console apps.  I want to skip
past this but I miss out on so much.   Please help!!!!
