Why does this annoying thing happen?

#include <windows.h>

#using <mscorlib.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;

int APIENTRY _tWinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,
HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPTSTR lpCmdLine,
int nCmdShow)
{

}

Hi,

This happens in projects in the IDE when no reference to the DLL has been
added. I think the command line arg is
/FU "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\System.Windows.Forms.dll"
for Forms.

Yes after adding a #using <System.Windows.Forms.dll>, this error got
fixed. However other strange errors occurred,and the bottom line is that
we need to use the Windows Form Application project to make things work.

Thanks for the help.

Hi,

That's not true... I've used a Form in a console project. Adding the
reference in Solution Explorer/References did the trick, I didn't need
#using <...Forms.dll>.
