From the project properties dialog
Startup Object
The name of the class that contains the Main method that you
want called on program startup. The ( Not set ) option is valid if
there is only one Main.

This setting in the project properties dialog must be set if more
than 1 class has a Main. Several classes can have a Main but
only one of them can be set as the Startup Object. If you have
more than one Main and the Startup Object is not set than you'll
get this error.

OP. What version of the .net compiler are you using and did you
set the startup object ?

if you download my project below you'll see that project 2 is already set as startup project.
now the problem is project 2 has a link up woth a file in project 1 therefore it will have 2 mains...
1 from project1's .cs file and one - itw own cs file....
now i cant comment out one of the main cause it can be worked that way....
there is a catch somewhere cant figure it out....
any help in appreciated.

I opened the project. No startup object was set. I set the
startup object and it built fine.

Are you sure you're specifying
"startup object" ? This is different from "startup project"

I think you are getting confused with start up PROJECT and startup OBJECT

1. open up your solution in VS.Net
2. Select "Project2" (your start up project)
3. right click -> Properties
4. Under "Common properties", select "General"
5. In the right side panel (grid), look for "Start up object". There, set the class which has the main method you want to be called when you launch the application.

Poochi...

tks a lot guys.....it works now.....

one question...wahts up with the startup object???
wats all this used for??

tks a lot
