I have just installed C# for the first time, and at first glance it appears to be very similar to VB6. I decided to start off by trying to make a 'Hello, World!' UI Edition.
I started in the Form Designer and made a button named "Click Me!" proceeded to double-click it and typed in
MessageBox("Hello, World!");
I received the following error:
MessageBox is a 'type' but used as a 'variable'
Fair enough, it seems in C# MessageBox is an Object. I tried the following
MessageBox a = new MessageBox("Hello, World!");
I received the following error: MessageBox does not contain a constructor that takes '1' arguments
Now I am stumped. Please help.
