HttpUtility.UrlEncode in console application

.net, console-application, urlencode, vb.net, visual-studio-2010

Solution

`System.Web` is there, but seems Visual Studio doesn't sort by name by default. You'll need to click `Component name` column to get that list sorted.

I was able to run this code:

Console.WriteLine(System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlEncode(" ")); // +

Just adding a `System.Web` reference, without `System.Web.Extensions`.

Also, You should replace your target framework from .NET Framework 4 Client Profile to .NET Framework 4; go to Project >> Properties... >> Application tab

Problem

I'd like to use HttpUtility.UrlEncode in a console application, VB.NET, VS 2010 Beta 2. ``` System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlEncode(item) ``` Error message: 'HttpUtility' is not a member of 'Web'. In this question Anjisan suggests to add a reference to System.Web, as follows: - In your solution explorer, right click on references - Choose "add reference" - In the "Add Reference" dialog box, use the .NET tab - Scroll down to System.Web, select that, and hit ok However, I don't have a System.Web entry at that location.
