    Hi Omar

    If the error you get is a missing reference you will need to add a reference to the missing DLL. The Sharepoint DLL's can be found at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\ISAPI, you may also be able to build but not open the designer but in that case you would probably be getting The type initializer for 'Microsoft.SharePoint.WorkflowActions.OnWorkflowActivated' threw an exception. or Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.SharePoint.WorkflowActions.int

    The simplest development setup is to have the Visual Studio installed on the server that has Sharepoint installed, it will help with a number of issues such as missing DLL's and debugging issues. How ever it is not impossible to develop on your workstation and deploy to the server but it will require that you copy and register a few Dll's in the GAC and for remote debugging you will need a full setup of visual Studio along with the remote debugger on the server (about that).

    I have an article on my blog explaining some of the steps you can take to get it working, http://zgud.spaces.live.com/

    good luck

    verify project references

    expand references branch, check if there arent any exclamation marks.

    You should see Microsoft.Sharepoint, Microsoft.Sharepoint.WorkflowActions.
