args.length doesnt work!

[Techno]

hi there.

in my C# app, I have this:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
if(args.length == 0)
{
  Application.Run(new Form1())
}
else
{
  Console.WriteLine("args specified!");
}
}

now, if i try to run this application through a command console and specify arguments, nothing happens - it doesnt display any text on the console.

if i do not specify any arguments, the application works fine and loads the form - great.

If i try to debug within VS.NET 2003, and specify arguments, it shows me the args specified! message

the interesting thing is, if i do a messageBox.show() instead of Console.Writeline - it shows the message box! (with args given to the application)

any idea what is going on? and yes, i have tried both the release and debug build types

thanks!
