  Why do you expect that to work? What happened? Did you get error message?
  
  I suggest you take some time and look at the thread titled "Please
  Read Before Posting a Question" - it will tell you
  
  (1) How to do a simple "Hello World" program
  
  (2) How to ask a question that conveys needed information.

  I bet something did happen.
  
  Hint:
  
  What in your experience happens in Windows when a program runs to completion?
  How long do you think it takes for your program to run to completion?
  How much do you think you will see in that time?

  as cpns says the program was well executed, but it was dam too fast to see it happening :)
  just add this command: getchar(); ,which asks from you to press 'enter' before the program ends.
