vbc compile error

[SomSallyX]

Hi

I'm new to .Net; I tried a program to check for the internet connection. but
when i tried to compile the code i got the following error

error BC30002: Type 'WebResponse' is not defined.
error BC30002: Type 'WebRequest' is not defined.
(I compiled the program from command prompt using the switch /r and
specified the system.dll and system.Web.dll)

Any help is appreciated ...

Public Class Class1
Public Function IsConnectionAva ilable() As Boolean
Dim objUrl As New System.Uri("htt p://www.google.com/")
Dim objWebReq As System.Net.WebR equest
objWebReq = System.Net.WebR equest.Create(o bjUrl)
Dim objResp As System.Net.WebR esponse
Try
objResp = objWebReq.GetRe sponse
objResp.Close()
objWebReq = Nothing
Return True
Catch ex As Exception
objResp.Close()
objWebReq = Nothing
Return False
End Try
End Function

Public Shared Sub Main()
Dim objTest As New Class1()

If objTest.IsConne cted() = True Then
System.Console. WriteLine("Conn ected")
else
System.Console. WriteLine("Not Connected")
End If

objTest = Nothing
End Sub

End Class

The System.Net.WebR equest is part of the System.dll assembly, so you code
should compile if you correctly have included a reference to this dll.

The object browser tells me that the classes can be found in 'system.dll'.
