problem following n Tier example

[Doug Bell]

Hi,

I have been working through an example on MSDN describing a simple N Tier
strategy.

I have a problem trying to follow the instructions to create the Data Layer.

The Instruction says:
" Creating the Data Tier
The data tier is responsible for connecting to your data source, building a
typed data set, and returning that data set from a method within this
component.

Follow these steps to build a data tier component.

1.. In the Solution Explorer window, right-click the solution named
EmpClient.
2.. On the shortcut menu, click Add, and then click New Project.
3.. Choose the Class Library template. Set the name of this class library
to EmpData.
4.. Delete the class file named Class1.vb from the project.
......................"
With my installation of VB.Net, when I try to add a new project, the only
templates that I get are:
1. Windows Application
2. ASP.NET Web Application
3. ASP.NET Web Service
4. ASP.NET Mobile Web Application
5. Console Application

Should I have an option of Class Library?
If so where can I find a copy of this template to load?
Am I missing other templates?

Thanks

Doug

Hi,

You need vs.net pro or higher for a class library project to appear
as an option.
