ApplicationSettingsBase

[Jim]

I am upgrading a c# project from 2.0 to 3.5.
I am getting:
Error 2 The type or namespace name 'ApplicationSettingsBase' does not
exist in the namespace 'System.Configuration' (are you missing an
assembly reference?)

in the generated Settings.Designer.cs

My net 3.5 sdk directories (as opposed to net 2.0 directories) do not
have a system.configuration.dll
Can anyone help

Hello jim,

Do u have a reference to System.dll and used it in using namespace?

However, I restored the project from a backup and re-converted it with
VS2008 and the problem seemed to go away.
Thanks for your response
