Hey I downloaded an e-book on C++, it's C++ for dummies 7 in 1 edition 2. But in the book they tell me to use Codeblocks as a compiler, but I already have Visual studio. Should I stick with the book and use CodeBlocks?

It won't make a difference. Just enter the code in visual studio, Make a Win32 Console Application and follow the book, it's the same thing.

use microsoft visual c++ 2010 express 
but code is the same no matter what (unless the compiler codeblock is using something made specifically made for that compiler only, but i doubt it). I am pretty sure the book follows all standards set by American National Standards Institute (ANSI)

I personnally use Code::Block, and I think its a pretty good compiler.
You can use Visual studio too, they both use the same ISO C++ rules...

An IDE is not a compiler. Anyways, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3...guide-and-list
