public static class?

Jan 27 2011 7:04 AM

Im new to c sharp so am creating simple things to learn.
i know using global variables bad and have been led towards using a static class? attached is all the code. I get an error saying  The type or namespace name 'Ball1' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) so im guessing im using this wrong but I cant see how. i've spent a couple hours looking at tutorials and the code seems right so i can only guess i've put something in the wrong place?
Any help would be greatly apreciated
