Setting Up C++ Express

This document provides instructions for setting up a C++ project in Visual Studio Express. It involves creating a new project, selecting the project type as Win32 Console Application, choosing an empty project template, and adding an existing C++ file to the project. The instructions then explain how to run the project without debugging. The code in the added file simply prints a welcome message using cout.
