Inconsistent accessibility: property type is less accessible than property

[Kevin Marois]

I'm not sure why I'm getting this error. First I created an enum in my static main class:

public enum ItemTypes
{
None,
Root,
Clients
}

Then I created a class that refers to it:

public class csNodeInfo
{
private csWorkITApp.ItemTypes _ItemType = csWorkITApp.ItemTypes.None;
public csWorkITApp.ItemTypes ItemType
{
get { return _ItemType; }
set { _ItemType = value; }
}

private DataAccess.AppDataAccess \_DataRecord = null;
public DataAccess.AppDataAccess DataRecord
{

    get { return \_DataRecord; }
    set { \_DataRecord = value; }
}

}

It's erroring on

public csWorkITApp.ItemTypes ItemType

saying "Inconsistent accessibility: property type '...csWorkITApp.ItemTypes' is less accessible than property '...csNodeInfo.ItemType'" Anyone?

Everything makes sense in someone's mind

Is the enum declared w/in the declaration for the static class? If so moving the enum declaration outside of the class declaration will probably fix your problem.

It's monday.... The main class was not public

yup. The program.cs file Visual creates for you has a static class without explicit scope, making it less than public. Either add public to that class, or move your enum out of there. :)
