Note To Self: Remember to Add Assembly References Before Banging Head Into Desk

This is a quick note to myself - and all of you as well - for writing code and using classes from outside the standard .net assemblies.

Be sure to add assembly references to the project!

I was was working on some code today and tried to use a .net class from outside the assemblies that are automatically referenced when a new project is created. In this particular case I was trying to make use of the System.Transactions.TransactionScope class - from the System.Transactions assembly.

No Suggestions After several minutes of banging my head into the desk and Googling I threw my ands into the air and asked for directions. Lucky for me Jon G. quickly shed some light on the issue.

It was an ID-10-T Error.

After adding a reference to the System.Transactions assembly I was back in business. It's been a long week.
