I apologize for a very stupid question but how do I setup Kdb+ Studio so that I can start running some of the basic q statements (not queries)?  
I can launch q by double clicking on C:\q\w32\q.exe but I am not very comfortable with working on the command prompt window, so I was wondering if someone could please help me setup Kdb+ Studio.

Or if you can please point me to any document/tutorial.&nbsp;

Thank for your help.
