[RESOLVED] What does this warning mean?

What does this warning mean? And how can i fix it?

Code:

---

Warning        1        'MY_Namspace.MainForm.Load()' hides inherited member 'System.Windows.Forms.Form.Load'. Use the new keyword if hiding was intended.

---

This is my load method:

Code:

---

private void Load()
        {
            settings.LoadXml();
            txtDisplay.Text = settings.Display;
            txtName.Text = settings.Name;
            txtTopic.Text = settings.Topic;

            settings.LoadTo(txtTo.Text);
            settings.LoadBody(txtBody.Text);
        }

---

Thanks.

Never mind i figured out why. Apparently i cant use the name load.

You can if you want to replace the inherited Load method. If you do declare it as:

Code:

---

private new void Load()

---

In your case, perhaps LoadSettings( ) will be more appropriate?
