command line compiling
-
Hi. How do I compile a C# .net program via command line that uses Windows Forms? I get an error message when I put "Using System.Windows.Forms". I know the code is correct as it is a simple example. I know I'm just missing something minor. How do I get it to find the forms library, or do I have to specify something else when compiling via command line?

C# is case-sensitive so it should be "using System.Windows.Forms;" Your example could be compiled with the following statement:
csc /target:winexe YourFile.cs
