Read your code carefully,

if the compiler won't recognize

Application.EnableVisualStyles();

try

System.Windows.Forms.Application.EnableVisualStyles();

If it now works, just add

using System.Windows.Forms;

on top of your code file and you can use the first way of writing it.

Note that you need a reference to System.Windows.Forms.dll to use it.
 
I know all of things u said..and I know how I can refrence it..but it can't
find it..even it can't show that in intelligence editor.
 
Are you doing a winform or console application?
If you are doing a winform application, then I'm out of ideas.
If you are doing a console application, then you need to add System.Windows.Forms.dll to the list of references or Intellisense won't even show System.[Windows] as a possible choice.

If you have done all that, can create other controls just fine, made sure you don't have namespace conflict (having your own Application class etc), then I can't help you any more :(

Ah, maybe that's it, EnableVisualStyles() is supported only in Framework 1.1

You need .NET Framework 1.1 and therefore VS.NET 2003, it won´t work with
VS.NET 2002
