First thing when I try to run the application (I just downloaded it from CodeProject, right here), I get this error:

The name Resource does not exist in the current context

So when I double click the error it takes me to this code:

private Image mp_CodeImage_Class = Resource._class;

But there is a class called Resource but is in a file called Resource.Designer.cs, and this file is in a resource file called Resource.resx. When I check the properties of Resource.resx, Build Action is set to Embedded Resource and Custom Tool is set to PublicResXFileCodeGenerator. I’m just saying this details in case they help you find a solution because I know nothing about resources, just almost never use them. Hope you can help. Thanks.

    For one, you can’t open .sln files (which are VS solutions) in the express versions.

    So what you will need to do is open the project file (.csproj), compile it, close that project and then copy the dll which you’ve just compiled into your project in which you want to use the control.

    Hope this helps.
