value of type string canoot be converted to a 1-dim array error

[avantgardejazz]

I get the error:

"A value of type 'string' cannot be converted to a '1-dimentional array of string'

from the code

Module Module1

Sub Main()
Program.main("b")
End Sub
End Module
Class Program
'unline modules, members in a clas are not automatically shared
Shared Function main(ByVal args As String()) As Integer

'os runing this app
Console.WriteLine("current os: {0}", Environment.OSVersion)
'list the drives on this machine
Dim drives As String() = Environment.GetLogicalDrives()
Dim d As String
For Each d In drives
Console.WriteLine("you have a drive named {0}.", d)

Next
'which version of .net platform is running this app?
Console.WriteLine("Executing version of .net: {0}", _
Environment.Version)
Return 0
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(500)
End Function
End Class

any ideas? I'm a newbie working my way thru the pro vb.net book.

well you have declared args as an Array but when you call the function you supply just a string value instead.
Either change the function parameter to String without brackets or supply array when you call the same.

P.S. why you declared the parameter when you never use it?
