Novice to Code::Blocks and c++ for that mater

[FCiscoNJ]

Hi I'm on win xp.
Trying to learn c++
So i'm learning from here:
http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/lesson1.html
(That's how new i am to programming, don't laugh)
It says i need a compiler. so i go with one of it's recommendation, code::blocks
So i go to code blocks url
http://www.cprogramming.com/code_blocks/
first those screen shots show an older version of codeblock v1.0
i have 8.02

any my problem is. i entered the same exact code that those screen shots have, i hit F9
and nothing happens. something flew by the build log screen but too quick for to capture.

never the less a command prompt like that in the  http://www.cprogramming.com/code_blocks/ 
never appeared?
can someone let me know what i'm doing wrong?
I would be ever so grateful.
i know it must be simple ,i'm completely new to all this.

additonal notes:
Codebloks itself is installed in the default program files directory.

i save the project to my "My Documents" folder

This is what I have in the folder structure:
My Documents\MyProjects
MyFirst.Workspace

I also have another folder under myprojects
My Documents\MyProjects\MyFirstProgrammingProject\
uder that i have,
main.cpp
myfirstprogrammingproject.cbp
myfirstprogrammingproject.depend
myfirstprogrammingproject.layout

NEVER MIND I GOT IT TO WORK.

This is how if you are interested .. (prolly not since it's easy for you all.)

in code::blocks
go to Settings menu > Compiler and Debbugger > Under Selected Compiler:

I changed it
from Borland C++ Complier
To     gnu gcc compiler.
set it to default.
hit ok.

went back to the main code::blocks screen , clicked on on the run (play ) icon , it said it hasn't been built yet , do you want to build it? i said yes ..
and voila...

console window appear.


This is so exciting.


drive on...
