Banishing the Command Prompt Window (WinForms)

Question

Hi All,

I have a problem over here. You see, I wanted to create my own sample application in C# but without Visual Studio creating the files automatically for me. So I figured that I'd simply select "Empty Project" and then create the Program.cs file myself, and then manually add a Winfows Form from the Project menu. That went good.

But then when I clicked the Debug button, to my surprise; The console Window sits behind my Applications Window. And if I try to close the console window, it closes my program's window, too. (This is NOT a Console-based application.)

Can somebody please help me get rid of this console window?

I've looked all over the place but have found nothing regarding this matter.

Thank you

Jason.

Go into the properties of your project and change your application "Output Type" from "Console Aplication" to "Windows Application".

This will fix your issue.
