You've got your solution explorer which contains all of the files to be compiled for each project.
You've got your build output window which will tell you the progress of your compiles and any errors/warnings that come up.
You've got your main code editor window, this one's pretty easy to figure out =P
And then the search feature, which can search in that file, that project, or the entire solution.
Getting used to an IDE just takes time, so use it however you wish to use it.
No... The MP SDK contains source code for the game.
What IDE are you trying to use? The MP SDK assumes that you're going to be using MS Visual C++. You can download a free version of it here: Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition
In case of a fire, this door will be locked and cameras will be switched on for an impromptu reality show.
the IDE im using is microsoft visual studio, but the problem is i dont know how to use the program and.... thats why I really wanted to take a tutorial that would teach me how to use the program.
RAZOR, you said it takes some time to get used to using an IDE, so is it really that easy to use, but takes time ?

You just have to get used to the concept of working with 'projects' in a 'solution', and compiling your code.
It takes time, but once you understand it, things become a lot easier.
