Error message - Coding Error

[lenniekuah]

Hi Good Guys,
I need your help again. Please help me.
While compiling my former Developer C# 2008 program I encounter these error messages.

One of the error message is About DELEGATE. I have not heard of this before.


Error message:

Error 2'CShartNet2008GeneralApps.FrmDataGrid' does not contain a definition for 'btnExportXML_Click' and no extension method 'btnExportXML_Click' accepting a first argument of type 'CShartNet2008GeneralApps.FrmDataGrid' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Coding from File Name: FrmDataGridDesigner.cs

this.btnExportXML.Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Verdana", 9F,       System.Drawing.FontStyle.Bold, System.Drawing.GraphicsUnit.Point, ((byte)(0)));
            this.btnExportXML.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(472, -2);
            this.btnExportXML.Name = "btnExportXML";
            this.btnExportXML.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(119, 24);
            this.btnExportXML.TabIndex = 4;
            this.btnExportXML.Text = "Export XML File";
            this.btnExportXML.UseVisualStyleBackColor = true;
            this.btnExportXML.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.btnExportXML_Click);
 
 

--------------------------------------

Another error message

Error 13 Expected class, delegate, enum, interface, or struct

Coding from File Name : FrmDataGrid.cs

  private void btnExportXML_Click(object sender, EventArgs e); handles BtnExportXML.Click
        {
 
        }

The first error is complaining because it cannot find btnExportXML_Click.

The other error is because btnExportXML_Click has the incorrect syntax and might not be nested inside a class. The stuff in bold is incorrect. There might be other errors else where in your code besides this. Post more if you need more help

private void btnExportXML_Click(object sender, EventArgs e); handles BtnExportXML.Click
{

}

Yeah, check to make sure the namespaces match and that the function is either defined in the same class (since it is private) or in the 'partial' class.

However, in cases like these.... I find it is just better to delete that code and remake it. Wipe it out and crate a new event handler then copy/paste the functional code into the handler
