Yes you can compile c in VS.Net.

Create a new project. Visual C++. Using the subtype Win32 Console application or Win32 Project as appropriate for your program.

You don't want to use the CLR versions, they're the .net framework versions.

Then Click under menu project/properties
On property page. click c/c++, Advanced, compile as c code.

Edit: To debug, use either step through (F11, f10) or debug (F5) to see your code working or not.

Never knew you could do that! That i'm going to try as soon as i get home. That'd beat the pants off Dev-C++ i'd say.

And don't forget the freely available download of Visual Studio Express editions. Plenty to muck around with there. Plus a free 8 hour video tutorial from Microsoft.
