  I solved my issue. It appears I had a Naming issue (Files, Namespaces, Classes, etec.)

  Thanks again for your help.

  The difference is that in C++ this .cpp file needs to #include the header file that defines the AboutDialog class. None of those other languages require that.

  Thank you very much cgraus. -My program ran, but now I have another problem.

  Instead of opening up my AboutDialog form it opened up a blank form.

  Also, when I tried to debug the program, stored in the 'About' object was: 0x012e1e24 {tableLayoutPanel=<undefined value>...}

  I don't understand why it's doing that.

   

  Can't instantiate a class inside another class

  Hi. The code below generates the errors: Error 1 error C2065: 'AboutDialog' : undeclared identifier  Error 2 error C2065: 'About' : undeclared identifier  Error 3 error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'AboutDialog'  Error 4 error C2227: left of '->Show' must point to class/struct/union/generic type     AboutDialog^ About = gcnew AboutDialog();    About->Show(); This is a Windows Forms app. With two forms; a Main form and an About Dialog Box. I am trying to call the About Box class from inside the Main form class. (I have written the same program in VB,  VC#, and VJ# with no problem)  Thanks
