The type or namespace name 'console' could not be found

[Guest]

Hi,

I am new to C#. I have created a console C# application. For some reason,
Console.Writeline is showing an error - "The type or namespace name 'console'
could not be found".

Only the default namespace 'System' is included. Is 'Console' not defined in
this namespace?

Any suggestions?

Hi kd,

C# is case sensitive. It's Console with a capital C.

Hi Morten,

Thanks for your reply.

Is there any setting available, so that case is ignored, like vb.net?

Thanks.

It is, but it's got a capital C. If the error message is as you
included it here, you've got console.WriteLine rather than
Console.WriteLine.

No. C# is always case-sensitive.
