Hello,
I am using a beginners book on VB .net and already stumped....when using
this code (below) , it will tell me that MsgBox is not valid. This is a very
simple program and I can't figure out what the problem is:
Public Class Form1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
#Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "
Public Sub New()
MyBase.New()
'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
InitializeComponent()
'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call
End Sub
'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
If disposing Then
If Not (components Is Nothing) Then
components.Dispose()
End If
End If
MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
End Sub
'Required by the Windows Form Designer
Private components As System.ComponentModel.IContainer
'NOTE: The following procedure is required by the Windows Form Designer
'It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer.
'Do not modify it using the code editor.
<System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> Private Sub InitializeComponent()
'
'Form1
'
Me.AutoScaleBaseSize = New System.Drawing.Size(5, 13)
Me.ClientSize = New System.Drawing.Size(292, 266)
Me.Name = "Form1"
Me.Text = "Form1"
End Sub
#End Region
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
MsgBox("Hi There")
End
End Sub
End Class
6  1407 
MsgBox has changed in VB.NET it is now: MessageBox.Show("")
Hope this helps
Matt.

That's interesting because in an application I made before using this book,
MsgBox worked and this book seems to use MsgBox throughout and it is a
VB.NET book.

MsgBox is a VB function and is still valid in VB .NET. However, this
function requires importing the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace. By default,
this namespace is added to all newly created projects. (Project -->
myproject properties --> Common Properties --> Imports). So you should be
able to use this function by default. If its throwing up an error, you might
want to check whether you have the namespace included. However, as Matt
suggested, you might want to use MessageBox.Show instead (I believe it has
more options).
hope that helps..

msgbox() DOES exist in VB.NET

It gives me the squiggly underline and says:
"MsgBox is a namespace, and so it is not a valid expression"
But when I open a previous solution with MsgBox it doesn't give me this
error..suggestions?

had a "duh" moment...the book made you name the solution the same as MsgBox
and that is a no no..figured it out.
Thanks!
