RE: Basic question - New to Ncover

NCover won't work with notepad because it is a native app. NCover only collects coverage data for .NET applications.

A set of sample applications are distributed with NCover. They're in the C:\Program Files\NCover\Samples folder, and you can run NCover with them to test it out without having to write any code.
