Using DllImport

[k]

Hiya,

I'm hoping somebody can help me out here, I have searched for this
problem but had no joy in finding a solution.

I'm trying to use the DllImport attribute as follows:

[DLLImport("ODBCCP32.dll")]

I have "using System.Runtime.InteropServices;" at the top of my class
code. I still get a compilation error:

"The type or namespace name 'DLLImport' could not be found (are you
missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"

I thought about adding the reference to the dll through Add Reference
dialog - but that too gives an error - it claims it's not a dll or not
COM!

Hi Kirsty,

Simple mistake, you are writing DLL when it should actually be Dll :)

[DllImport("ODBCCP32.dll")]

D'oh!!!!

thanks a million Morten - I hadn't noticed that (I really thought I'd
typed it in as DllImport!)
