Linq DataContext class not accessible in my MVC after I save the dbml

I just downloaded MVC and I am going through a tutorial. Everything goes fine until I try to declare a DataContext object.

My dbml is named db.dbml (tried another on named test.dbml) and when I try this:

public dbDataContext db = new dbDataContext();

I get:

The type or namespace name 'dbDataContext' could not be found ...

Am I missing something? In webforms this is all I had to do, and in the tutorial that is all that is shown. I downloaded the newest MVC today...

Thank you.

**EDIT: I am using VS2008 SP1

A few quick questiosn: Is the name of your data context "dbDataContext"?... also, is it in a namespace? (do you have that namespace referenced).

Another question... is this a runtime error, or a compiletime error?
