Here is my code: [URL]..The goal is to get file path that was selected by the user in the Form1 class, transfer it to the File class, and do various things from there such word count, syllable count, etc.However Visual Studio says filePath isn't declared in the File Class, even though right above it you can clearly see it is.
View 6 RepliesI am getting this error: The class Form1 can be designed, but is not the first class in the file. Visual studio requires that designers use the first class in the file.
