[Dev-C++] Please help new Dev-C++ user trying to run first program !!!

[<muz...@ya...>]

Hi all,
I am a new user of Dev-C++ and have been pulling my hair out trying to get the 
simple examples on the program to run.
I started a new project, loaded the file from within the program ( so no typos), went 
to Execute and Compile current file and it compiles ok.  Then I go to Compile then I 
get the message 
 crt2.o C:\devcpl\Dev-Cpp\aaa test 1\ld No such file: No such file or directory. 
within the compiler error messages.
Also try to run it but it says Project is not compiled.  I have the files main.cpp, 
Project2.dev, main.o and Makefile.win all within the same sub-directory, so I guess it 
has compiled but not linked to create the exe file.
Please oh please can some nice kind person who is clued up with Dev-C++ please 
tell me how to get past this stage??
I am really keen to be able to proceed but at the moment I am hitting my head 
against a brick wall and the wall is almost tumbling down !!!
Regards,
Murray Felstead.
