(See previous post of similar title) I finally saw the Compile Log, here it is:
Compiler: Default compiler
Building Makefile: "C:\Dev-Cpp\Makefile.win"
Executing make clean
rm -f exper1.o FrancisFileRW.exe
g++.exe -c exper1.cpp -o exper1.o -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.2/include" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/3.4.2/backward" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/3.4.2/mingw32" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/3.4.2" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include"
g++.exe exper1.o -o "FrancisFileRW.exe" -L"C:/Dev-Cpp/lib"
Execution terminated
Compilation successful

<sigh>. Why on earth did you not post this to the thread you already started!?
If you are using a project, you have to set the debug option in the Project options not the Tools|Compiler options dialog - these are only applied on project creation. The message that asks you if you want o enable it does so in the compiler options even for a project build. That is a known bug.
When enables, a -g3 switch will appear in the command lines in the log.
(Form your other thread):
>> I like Dev C++ alot and would like to use it but without the debug it's not much help.
You are in for a shock, Dev-C++ integrated debugger is barely functional and very buggy. Use the separate Insight debugger from www.mingw.org, or better yet use VC++ 2008 Express Edition.

The Projects Options does have the debug option set to YES in the Compiler Linker section. And it still does not debug.
You indicate that you read the FAQ - did you read the thread titled "Please Read Before Posting a Question" - the section on getting started with the debugger, because it does NOT tell you to set debugging through the checkbox.

The following is from the FAQ: and this forum has the most arrogant, unhelpful, and insecure group of people I have ever met.
How do i enable Debugging mode ?
Go to Compiler Options and click on the Linker sheet. Now check 'Generate debugging information'. Do a 'Rebuild All' and you should be able to debug now
So you didn't bother read the thread titled "Please Read Before Posting a Question"?
It has a long section, with step by step directions, written by one of those arragant,
unhelpful and insecure people to whom you referred.
As far as I am concerned, you can delete Dev, and leave now.

[hauris]: "The following is from the FAQ: and this forum has the most arrogant, unhelpful, and insecure group of people I have ever met. "
I don think the phrase "and this forum has the most arrogant, unhelpful, and insecure group of people I have ever met." appears anywhere in the FAQ.

Careful, we don't want to lose "dour and humorless" from our list of negative characteristics.
