'namespace' is used like a 'type'

Ok well Im new to the programming world and Im trying to make and Invaders type game for a class and needing some help on an error.

public class MenuBaseGameState : GameState
{
//a SpriteBatch and font to render the menu
SpriteBatch spriteBatch;
SpriteFont font;

//the actual menu object
protected Menu Menu = new Menu();

The bolded part is the problem.

Its actually the word AFTER the bolded one I would say. You are naming the object the same as the type.
For simplicity's sake, try calling it "MyMenu":
protected Menu MyMenu = new Menu();

Ok that fixed that error but for some reason now the GameStateManager is not working. This time the error is:

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

Are you using the XNA menu sample?

[FrEaK411]

Pretty much yeah with a few extra options for sound in there

[Plater]

Do you have the XNA libraries installed and the references added to your project?

[RedSon]

Are you using the provided project files for that sample project that you downloaded from the XNA website?

I have a project hosted on google code that expands on that sample for Zune devices.

Would it help if I upoaded my code? If so where do youwant it uploaded to?


Well I fixed most of my issues, now imback at the namespace error with the same line of coded. I changed to the one stated above but it still gives me the error.
