title: How do I create a console application in Visual Studio Express for Windows 8?
body: <p>In VS Express for Windows 8, I am unable to create a console application. My understanding of C++ is very basic, and I would like to just work with a single C++ file.</p>
  
  <p>Upon creation of a C++ file, I am able to edit the program, but not test. Can anyone either explain to me how to build the file, or create a console application project?</p>
