DirectX - Type or Namespace Not Found Error

I know there has been a previous thread on this topic, but reading it didn't help me. (http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx PostID=87777)

I have referenced Microsoft.DirectX, Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D, and Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3DX, but it can't find ColorValue, FontWeight, or FontDescription. (type or namespace name not found error) I tried looking through them in the object browser, but couldn't find them either. Can anyone help

I'm using Visual Studio .NET 2003, version 7.1.3088.

    Do you have the correct Using statements at the top of your code

    Is this a project you created from scratch or one of the samples If its not a sample - can you try the samples and see if they compile.

  • prashanthmscis1227

    What versions of the assemblies have you added

    Version 9. August 2005 update (I think), if not October '05. I can't check because I'm not on that computer right now.

    EDIT: It also didn't work with October 2004.
