Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Form1'

I am getting error

Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Form1' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

on the subject while trying to build this with Visual C#:

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using SKYPE4COMLib; // Our COM library

namespace SkypeBing
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
private Skype skype;
private const string trigger = "!"; // Say !help
private const string nick = "BOT";

    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void Form1\_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        skype = new Skype();
        // Use skype protocol version 7 
        skype.Attach(7, false);
        // Listen 
        skype.MessageStatus +=
          new \_ISkypeEvents\_MessageStatusEventHandler(skype\_MessageStatus);
    }
    private void skype\_MessageStatus(ChatMessage msg,
                 TChatMessageStatus status)
    {

            // Remove trigger string and make lower case
            string command = msg.Body.Remove(0, trigger.Length).ToLower();

            // Send processed message back to skype chat window
            skype.SendMessage(msg.Sender.Handle, nick +
                  " Says: " + ProcessCommand(command));
        
    }

    private string ProcessCommand(string str)
    {
        string result;
        switch (str)
        {
            case "uli":
                result = "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfvBQMqCZw8";
                break;

            default:
                result = "Uliuli";
                break;
        }

        return result;
    }
}

}

Whole error:

Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Form1' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\Users\Topsu\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Projects\Skaip\Skaip\Program.cs 19 33 Skaip

That is the whole error. Line 99 Column 33

I have a feeling that you have not included the namespace in program.cs that Form1 is using i.e.

Form1 Myform = new form();

When you should of possibly done

SkypeBing.Form1 Myform = new SkypeBing.Form1();

I think you actually mean line 19. However, you also have not shown us the content of Program.cs so we cannot guess what is wrong in there.

Well only .cs I have on my project is Form1.cs and that makes me wondering why it says something about Program.cs

Have a look in the Solution Explorer window and you will see a full list of all source files in your project.
