The type or namespace name 'Office' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?)    


The type or namespace name 'ConversionJob' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

        public ConversionJob(WordServiceApplicationProxy serviceApplicationProxy);

…

what is wrong?

target framework is .Net framework 3.5

Solution

Ive solve the problem. I look to the output and there was message:

Microsoft.Common.targets(1360,9): warning MSB3268: The primary reference "<assembly reference>" could not be resolved because it has an indirect dependency on the framework assembly "<assembly" which could not be resolved in the currently targeted framework. ".NETFramework,Version=v3.5". To resolve this problem, either remove the reference "<assembly>" or retarget your application to a framework version which contains "<assembly>"

i try to find solution in google and – > http://www.sanderstechnology.com/2011/warning-msb3268-you-are-about-to-experience-pain/10646/#.TtYrXGP20Z8

Answer 1

Check the target framework of your application, might be you´re building for the client profile but the referenced assembly requires the full framework.
