Trouble with Object Reference

[Gooie]

I'm just trying to figure out how I could easily make a game, with Visual Basic 2008. I was looking at:

code:

System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs.Graphics.FillRectangle(Brushes.Coral, 30, 30, 20, 30)

But to use, System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs, I need an 'Object Reference'. How is this done? And Microsoft has a terrible help menu... Its all Vista ads.

You cannot simply "get" a graphics object. They are handed to you when needed. For example, you can get the screen's graphics object and draw directly, or you can overload or hook an event to a form's OnPaint or similar. You do not have direct access to things; that would defeat the purpose.
