DOS windows close automatically

hi there, i have this little problem:
every time i execute a c++ program on DOS, the window closes automatically after the program finishes. Therefore i have to include the getch() function at the end of every program. But i would really prefer not to do this on EVERY program and just find a way to configure DOS so the windows won't close anymore. Any suggestions?? Thanks.

You could go to Start > Run > and type "Command" to open a DOS window (or open it from Start > Programs > Accessories), and then run your program from there (for example, type cd\Pathofyourprogram and then Nameofyourexecutable.exe).

There are ways for DOS and Win32 console applications to determine the calling process. If it isn't cmd.exe or command.com, call getch().
