[Mono-list] System.Windows.Forms

[Peter Dennis Bartok]

Jim,

I'm sorry to hear you're having such a bad start trying out winforms.

It would be useful if you told us what exactly you downloaded, and where 
from.

You refer to looking for SWF support in the Mono core, if you check this 
list: http://www.go-mono.com/download/fedora-4-i386/ you'll see that 
mono-winforms is a separate package from mono-core.

Just for giggles, I downloaded the sources for 1.1.13.2 from here: 
http://go-mono.com/sources/ and checked, and the tarball does indeed contain 
a mono-1.1.13.2/mcs/class/Managed.Windows.Forms path and all it's files and 
subdirs.

Not sure where you're getting your dates from or where or what the WinForm 
wiki is, could you provide the URLs?

Cheers,
  Peter
