Unable to run hello world in Visual Studio Express

Question

I've just installed Visual Studio community edition from https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-express-vs.aspx

But it seems I cannot get hello world to run.

I create a new "Console Application" and Module1.vb is created.

I then created a .cs file and add following code :

using System;

    // Hello1.cs
    public class Hello1
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            System.Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
        }
    }

But how do I run this code ?

When I attempt "Run to Cursor" gives error "Cannot run to specified location"

did you create a visual basic project instead of a c# project? — thumbmunkeys, Jul 09 '15 at 16:34
You created the wrong type of project if you had a .vb file... — Borgleader, Jul 09 '15 at 16:34

Make a C# project instead of a Visual Basic one. You should have a Program.cs file generated that you will then be able to modify and add to.
