    Beginner VB.Net - needs code help

    I am teaching myself VB.NET - going through a code example that I can't get to run. Can someone take a look at this and tell me what is wrong ?

    ******************************************************

    Module Module1

    Sub Main()
    Dim Scores(2) As Integer
    Scores(0) = 45
    Scores(1) = 55
    Scores(2) = 65
    For intLoopIndex As Integer = 0 To UBound(Scores)
    Console.WriteLine("Score(" & intLoopIndex & ") = _
    " & Scores(intLoopIndex))
    Next intLoopIndex
    Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to continue...")
    Console.ReadLine()

    End Sub

    End Module


    ************************************************
    Thank you!

    You cannot break a line in the middle of a string literal. Either remove the line-continuation character...
    Code:
    Module Temp
        Sub Main()
            Dim Scores(2) As Integer
            Scores(0) = 45
            Scores(1) = 55
            Scores(2) = 65
            For intLoopIndex As Integer = 0 To UBound(Scores)
                Console.WriteLine("Score(" & intLoopIndex & ") = " & Scores(intLoopIndex))
            Next intLoopIndex
            Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to continue...")
            Console.ReadLine()
    
        End Sub
    End Module
    ...or break the line between strings, rather than in the middle of a string:
    Code:
    Module Temp
        Sub Main()
            Dim Scores(2) As Integer
            Scores(0) = 45
            Scores(1) = 55
            Scores(2) = 65
            For intLoopIndex As Integer = 0 To UBound(Scores)
                Console.WriteLine("Score(" & intLoopIndex & _ 
                    ") = " & Scores(intLoopIndex))
            Next intLoopIndex
            Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to continue...")
            Console.ReadLine()
    
        End Sub
    End Module
