Creating a new C# Project

1. Start Visual Studio 2005, 2008 or 2010.
2. Select File->New->Project.
3. Under "Project Type", select "Visual Basic > Windows".
4. Enter the name of the project you want to create and the location where it will be created.
5. Click on the "OK" button to create.

Adding appropriates assemblies to your project

1. Select the "Add Reference" option from your "Project" menu. This can also be done by opening the Project Property window, selecting the "References" tab and clicking on the "Add..." button.
2. Select the ".NET" tab in the "Add Reference" dialog.
3. Select Atp.EmailValidator.dll, Atp.Common.dll, and Atp.Network.dll from the list.
4. Click on the "OK" button.

Now you can add using directives to your code to create aliases for existing namespaces and avoid having to type the fully qualified type names.
