Solution could be simple:

C#

string fromAddress = "";
string toAddress = "";

I understand that we try to use var when object names are quite long and complicated.
But I find silly that people try to defeat the strongly-typed orientation of the C# language by using var keyword anywhere.

Solution 1

var was added in C# 3.0 (you seem to be using 2.0).

Solution 2

Var is a .net 3.5 enhancement. You might want to check the .net version you are using.

Good luck!
