I'm working on the second card game exercise - pg 263 and I'm getting a message that the type or namespace clsCardDeck could not be found. I know I have to reference it somehow. I tried adding a reference but couldn't find it then I tried adding using clsCardDeck; at the top of the code but nothing works and I've run out of steam and ideas. Any and all help appreciated...

Hi Tararak:

I'm assuming that you added the new class to the project in the standard manner. If not, you can use the Project->Add Exiting Item to add the class source code file to the project. Once you have done that, you can create an instance of the object using the syntax shown in the book, such as:

clsCardDeck myDeck = newclsCardDeck();


From that definition, you can use myDeck to reference the CardDeck object. See if that fixes your problem.
