That was it. It didn't occur to me that this was the problem 
because I payed closed attention during VisualD installation and 
saw it properly recognized where DMD was installed but for some 
reason the path wasn't set in Options. Once I did set it, compile 
and build worked. Thanks evilrat!

So in conclusion it seems the problem is in VisualD installation 
which doesn't set the path properly even though it recognizes 
where DMD is installed. Hope the author takes a look at this 
problem so beginners wanting to try D don't give up on a problem 
like this.
