[ketsi]

Hello ,

I have began to learn Latex...and tried a small code given in a tutorial...When compiled this code ,i got this message 'Undefined Control Sequence' in line 3...and also it says "No file myfirstlat.aux."(Filename is myfirstlat.tex)
Need help..

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
This is My \emph{First} Document Prepared in \Latex
\end{document} 

Thanks in advance:)
