Ok, I don't know what compiler you used to make the C++ program. But, for example, in Borland IDE, you have to go to Compile>Make. That will make the .exe file. this option should be located in the same menu as the Compile option in most compilers. This basically ensures that the .exe file is up to date.

However, if you've already tested out the program by running it, then it will automatically be up to date. This means that you can go to the folder where you saved your cpp file and you will find the exe file right next to it. BTW, if your sending/uploading your program, I would recommend that you send the bak, obj and cpp files along with the exe file.

When you compile the application at that time .exe file will be created at the place where you have been saved the program. just run the program and check the saved location. hope this will help you to solve your problem.
