I 'm a junior high school student trying to learn to program in C++. What text editor do I use to create a C++ program that the dmc compiler will recognize or does it have a built in editor and if so what flag would I use when invoking the compiler to create my C++ program?

Mars does have an editor, called micro emacs, it is not that good.

The CD has an IDE (/IDDE).

You can use dmc with a lot of editors, e.g:

You can use any editor that will create ascii text files, including notepad.exe and MS Word.

True, you can also use edit.exe and edlin.exe, but I prefer to use an
editor with syntax highlightning and that can call the compiler,
it save you a lot of time.
