default project in Visual C++
Hi!
I am lecturer in Armenian University. I teach “Programming in C++”. During my lecture I demonstrate and execute on the screen many independent C++ programs using Microsoft IDE (Visual C++). Many years I used Visual C++ 6.0. I executed programs just by double-clicking .cpp file without creating project. Visual C++ 6.0 created default project automatically. It was very convenient. Now I use new version - Visual C++ 2008 Professional Edition which has not such possibility. It is not convenient because I have to create project for each .cpp file.
My question:
Is there a version of modern Visual C++ which has this possibility? Thank you in advance.

How would you expect it to know what type of project you were interested in creating?

Never heard of this, and also, as GCDEF points out, how is that possible ? If you open a 'random' cpp file, you don't have a main, and even with a auto-generated main, the studio doesn't know what functions to call that are inside the cpp file.
