System.Web.Mail

Hi,

We have the latest version of Visual Studio installed on two machines.

Both give an error when trying to use System.Web.Mail
"The type or namespace name 'Mail' does not exist in the class or
namespace 'System.Web' (are you missing an assembly reference?)"

According to the microsoft examples & the help this should be there.

Does anyone know what is wrong?

Regards,
Chris

Have you added the System.Web.dll assembly to your Project References?

Cheers,

As the error suggests, you've almost certainly not got an assembly
reference to the assembly containing the System.Web.Mail namespace;
it's in the System.Web.dll assembly.
