c# - Seeing the console's output in Visual Studio 2010?

Question

I am writing a simple C# program with some outputs (Console.WriteLine("...");). The problem is, each time I run it, I cannot see the program's output in the output window.

The "program output" tag is already checked, and I already redirected all outputs to the intermediate window but to no avail.

How do I enable seeing the program's output?

I don't think the problem lies with my code. I tried running a simple program that just outputs a string and readline "ala hello world" and I am still unable to see any output. The problem is either with me looking for the output in the wrong location or Visual Studio acting out.

The debug.write method also doesn't work.

Using debug.Write, it all works, though it didn't before. Either something bugged out with me before I restarted or I just need to take a break, either way it's all good now. Thanks all for the helpful comments =)

You can use the System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write or System.Runtime.InteropServices method to write messages to the Output Window.
