Imports Microsoft.Directx

[LostProgrammer]

Last night I downloaded the 222mb directx 9 SDK. When I open up Visual Studio .net I can not import Microsoft.Directx. Am I missing somthing?

Have you tried opening any of the samples provided with the SDK? Have you tried creating a project from the DX9 template (click VB projects, then DX9 Visual Basic Wizard)?

Yea it puts a squiggly blue line under anything related to Directx.

I had this problem too. The SDK install did not infact install the DirectX DLLs. I had to manually copy and paste them from the .CAB files to the proper locations within the Microsoft .Net directory. Then (this may have been because I didnt realise there was a new project type) I added references to the DLLs from within the project.
