I have been working through this book using Visual Studio 2005 Profession Ed. and Visual Basic 2005 Express Ed. depending which computer I am on. I have an issue with the Debugging try-it-out in chapter 9 step 17. When entering the following:

     'Demonstrates the use of the Using statement
     'Allows acquisition, usage and disposal of the resource
    lstData.Items.Add("Computer Class Properties:")
    Using objMemory As New Computer
        lstData.Items.Add("FreeMemory = " & objMemory.FreeMemory)
        lstData.Items.Add("TotalMemory = " & objMemory.TotalMemory)
    End Using

In VB 2005 Express this works correctly, however, in VB 2005 Pro it does not. I get an error "'TotalMemory' is not a member of 'Debugging.Computer'". Any reason as to why this will work in Express but not in VS? Hope this makes sense.

Thanks,
E

Just answerd my own question. I forgot to add the TotalMemory property to the end of the Computer class.

E,

I ran the code that I wrote for this chapter on VS 2005 Team Edition for Software Architects and did not have any problems. Did you copy the code from one machine to the other or did you write the code on both machines?
