Note that the Console view shows you the entire build output. That can tell more.
Also note that the SDK you use matters a lot, Carbide.c++ 2.0 is a very old release, it may have problems with the most recent SDK-s. Unless you have some specific reason for this particular Carbide.c++ release, you may rather want to consider upgrading to 2.7 or 3.x.

If a popup text is enough for a starter, consider checking HelloWorldBasic example from the SDK. It shows text on the screen after selecting a menu item.
