Can a Console Applicatons use forms

[newbie]

If I am creating a concole application can I acces GUIs.

The textbook gives me the following code but I get and error stating
"type or namespace name "Windows" does not exist in class or namespace
"System" (are you missing and assembly reference?)"

I know I can do it in a Windows app but is is possible to use form in a
concole application and if so what further code do I need?


using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
public class Contact
{

public static void Main()
{
string msg = "Hello World";
MessageBox.Show(msg,"Hello Information");
}
}

Hello newbie,

Just add reference to the System.Windows.Forms.dll for your project

How do I add reference to the System.Windows.Forms.dll in the project?
