I'm not sure why you'd want to run ld.exe to run a program. If it's compiled and linked properly, it should create an exe file for you. If your file is called test.cpp, go to the directory where the file is stored in the DOS prompt, and type: gxx test.cpp -o test.exe That should compile and link your file. > Can anybody please tell me what is the problem, why it matters and how > can I overcome it and run my program? > > It is very important as it is my first exercise for university.... :) > > thanks a million! > > P.S.
