[dba-VB] Dot Net - messagebox

I tried that and while I could import System, System.Windows was not
available.  I suspect that it is because this was not a "windows" project,
but rather a "class library" project, but I am not sure of that.

 Hi John,

I've never used VB Express but...
This is what I use...

                        Dim result As DialogResult = MessageBox.Show _
                            ( _
                            "The application will be terminated...", _
                            "Application Fatal Error", _
                            MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Stop, _
                            MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1, _
                            MessageBoxOptions.DefaultDesktopOnly _
                            )

And it's a member of System.Windows.Forms so, Imports System

In a VB Express project, messagebox is valid, but when I open the same
thing in the VS, it says it is not valid.  Is it possibly because I
created this project as a class library?  I can't seem to import the
forms namespace which IIRC is where the messagebox is contained.

I am attempting to create my own library which I will reference from my
projects.  Should I not make it a class library or am I just completely
off track?
