Default Chap 3, "Length of String"

on page 55, the authors instruct to write:

'Get the text from the TextBox
strData = txtString.Text

...but i get an error saying, "Name txtString is not declared."

Here's what I've typed in Visual Studio:

        'declare variable
        Dim strData As String
        'get text from textbox
        strData = txtString.Text
        'display length of the string
        MessageBox.Show(strData.Length & " character(s)", "Length")

any suggestions?

Oops, Sorry!
Just realized I had to name the textbox.
All now works.
