You're okay so far, although I wonder where you saved hello.cpp.  In what
directory?

Pardon, I don't understand.  What does right clicking gxx.exe have to do
with the command line?

Can you tell us what you mean by "it didn't work."?  Did it give any
message?  Did it churn for a while, then give you back a command prompt
without displaying a message?

>Maybe I'm just nbot putting in the right command on the command line?

Your command looks correct, although I'm at a loss to guess why it didn't
work when I don't know what message the computer gave to you.
