Well, doesn't the software you use to program in C++ have an integrated compiler?

You gotta compile and link it. The compiler builds an object file (.obj i think) which contains machine code but isn't executable by the OS yet. It needs to be linked with header files and such that'll run it with your UI.

If you have a "build" option, that usually does the compiling and the linking for you. See if you got that.
