You can use the linker flag "/entry:mainCRTStartup" alongside the 
"/subsystem:windows" flag to achieve what you want: an executable with no 
console but using main() as the starting point.  That's what my OCaml-Win32 
library does when you link the tiny file lkwinapp.obj into your application. 
There's some discussion of the pros and cons of this approach in the 
build.txt file.  If you're curious, the library is available at:
