Please tell me what this means...

Question

Ok, ** When trying to compile the application I receive the following error ** AppMain.cs(116): No overload for method 'AppConfig' takes '1' arguments I have to forms.. AppMain and AppConfig I have frmAppMain class I have defined the following public static AppConfig appConfig In the form load section of AppMain I have the following AppConfig frmAppConfig = new AppConfig(this); I have placed a button on AppMain which contains the following code in the click event frmAppConfig.ShowDialog(); When executing the program I receive the error from above... Situation: I have a main application form. From the main form the user will click a button to bring up the AppConfig form After filling in some information, the user will click OK to save the information supplied on the AppConfig form. I'm probably making this harder than it needs to be. Any assistance provided is VERY much appreciated. Thanks, Bob

Your basic question is "tell me what this means... AppMain.cs(116): No overload for method 'AppConfig' takes '1' arguments " This error means that you have made a call to AppConfig and passed a single parameter. This error message means that you have to remove that parameter or add more parameters. Double-click on that error and it will take you to line 116. On line 116, you will find the following: AppConfig(...) The "..." may be anything. It doesn't matter. Put the cursor anywhere between the parentheses and press CTRL-SHIFT-SPACE. You will get your parameter list box popup. Do you see UP and DOWN arrows in the box? This indicates that there is more than one version of the AppConfig method (they're called overloads). You can use the up and down arrow keys to view each overload. The only difference between overloads is their parameters. To solve this problem, you must fix the parameters in this method call so that they match one of the overloads. By "match", I mean that you must have the same number of parameters and they must be the same type. You get to choose which overload you want to match. Any one will do. It's a little hard to follow your app because I don't see where AppConfig can be a method, but that might be part of the problem. Things will be more clear if you will post a copy of the contents of line 116 please.
