<br></div></div></blockquote></div><br>Hi Harry,<br><br>did you already configure TeXniccenter in the right way? After installation you need to specify the path to the mikTeX executables.<br><br>You can easily check:<br><br>
1) Are Outputprofiles defined? (Do you have a dropdown box saying "LaTeX => PDF") in Texniccenter?<br><br>2) Create a very basic document<br><br><br>\documentclass{article}<br>\begin{document}<br><br>Hello Harry<br>
<br>\end{document}<br><br>save it and try to compile it either by the respective button or in the menu (something like output => active document => Create) <br><br>Do you get an output file (DVI, PDF)?<br><br>If it worked check the not so short introduction...<br>
