Not really new to C++ but I haven't done it in A LONG time. The thing is when I compile and run it only pops up for a split second instead od actually saying hello. I'm using Dev-C++ from bloodshed, possibly not the best compiler but it's free and that's basically my budget. Well thanks, any help is appreciated.

It probably is running, just not pausing.

add
system("pause");
or a
getch();
or a
char x; cin>>x;

to the end of the program to force it to pause for you.

or cin.get(); which is pretty much the latter of your choices.

This is what I have right now. I tried putting those things in different parts of the code.
#include
using namespace std; //introduces namespace std
int main( void )
{
cout << "Hello World!!!" ;
system("pause");
return 0;

}
Rewrite it for me please and show me my mistakes.

You should be able to run it from the command line. I'm not sure where DevCPP sticks things by default, but it should be in your project folder somewhere. Run it from the command line, and see if it says hi.
