In VB.NET, the output is a .exe file. Since I am new at VB, I am still only
programming console applications. For a console applications, the only two
ways I know of of executing it are to go to command prompt and type in:
testrun.exe

or, you can find the file in your computer and dbl click it. the first one
is not practical if I want to take it to school, and the second always runs
in a fullscreen mode. Is there anyway to set the default for running .NET
console applications in a window format and not a fullscreen format? Thanks
in advance.

Almost everybody in this newsgroup is using VB6 or lower. While you may
get a stray answer to VB.NET questions here, you should ask them in
newsgroups devoted exclusively to .NET programming. Look for newsgroups
with either the word "dotnet" or "vsnet" in their name.

For the microsoft news server, try these newsgroups...

microsoft.public.dotnet.general
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb
microsoft.public.vsnet.general

There are some others, but these should get you started.
