'A namespace does not directly contain members such as fields or methods'

[RAO]

Hi

I new to C# progrmming. I have taken a sample code from the internet and
try to compile it. I am getting the error

'A namespace does not directly contain members such as fields or methods'

and the code is

----------------------
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.ADO ;

Namespace DBAccess
{


public class DBRead
{
public ADODataReader DataReader(stri ng DBStr,string strSQL)
{
// Create the connection
ADOConnection oCn = new ADOConnection(D BStr);
//Create the Command Object
ADOCommand oCm = new ADOCommand(strS QL,oCn);
//Open the connection
oCn.Open();
//Create a null DataReader Object
ADODataReader oDr ;
//Execute the SQL Query
oCm.Execute(out oDr);
// Return the DataReader
return oDr;
}
}
}
----------------------

Any idea what is wrong with this code.

TIA

Re: 'A namespace does not directly contain members such as fields or methods'

Hi RAO,

C# is case sensitive, so the error is that you wrote *Namepsace* with
capital *N*. Write *namespace* instead.

In that case, I *strongly* suggest you start with the basics, rather
than diving straight into database access.

C# is case sensitive. Your line:
[color=blue]
> Namespace DBAccess[/color]

should be

namespace DBAccess
