When you run a console application from visual studio the application run so fast and the console closes that you never see the output.

ohhh...this is an easy fix. Just put down the statement Console.Readline() as the last line in your program. This will keep the window open until you hit the enter key.That's cool!!!!!!

Alternative 3

Add a call to Console.Readline() or Console.Read() at the end of your Main function this will prever the console from closing until the user presses a key or enter.

But you have to forcefully close the console window..There was not any enter press from key board.I may also hang your console when you close it

If you run the program without debugging, it will prompt you to "enter any key to continue".
 
If you are using a console application, and you use CTRL+F5 (in VS2008) you will get a "Press any key to continue . . . "
 
At least that's the way it's always worked for me.
 
Obviously, if you want to use debugging, then Console.ReadLine( ) is the preferred method.
