The type '<type name>' has no field named '<field name>'

The type specified in the error message has no field of that name. The following code example demonstrates a type with an unsupported field name:

Form1.FormBorderstyle = Automobile

form1.FormBorderstyle = Automobile;

To correct this error

• Use a field that is supported by that type. In reference to the previous code example, code similar to the following is appropriate.

  Dim mainForm as new Form
  mainForm.FormBorderStyle = _ 
      System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog
  

  Form mainForm = new Form();
  mainForm.FormBorderStyle = 
      System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog;
