Inherited class 'Type ...' not found

Hello,

I am assuming that this is Visual Studio?

What project template did you select when creating your project?
If you are using native OO syntax like inheriting from the base class, then you must select one of the native project templates. The native OO syntax isn’t supported in the .NET Framework templates.

If you are using a native template, then perhaps you could show us what your source code looks like?

Hi, man, thank you.

You're right, it's Visual Studio.

I started a new project from

Then, I copied an existing class.

There are no directives in this classe.

Yes, you are using the old style native syntax with a .NET Framework Windows Forms project. This will not work as the native class libraries such as base do not exist in managed code (.NET Framework).

If you have existing native OO-COBOL programs that you are bringing over from a previous product such as Net Express, you will have to either rewrite them to work with the newer syntax which is integrated into the .NET Framework classes or you will have to use a native project template in order to run the code as it ran previously.

The .NET COBOL docs can be found here and there are quite a few samples in the .NET tutorials in the docs and within the Samples Browser which is accessible from the Visual COBOL folder on the Windows Start menu.

I managed to make it work, I started a new class, and, "Voilà".

Thank you, man.
