Newbie Cannot Instantiate Dialect Class

I am trying to get my application to work. I have my config in app.config and it seems to load all the properties right. But when I try and load my classes it throws an exception ""Could not instantiate dialect class NHibernate.Dialect.MsSQL200Dialect". I have tried to set this programmatically and through the app.config. If I look at my config object the property gets set correctly but nothing seems to get this to instantiate. Has anyone seen this or have any idea how to get past it. I am using VS.Net 2005, nhibernate 1.0.2, vb.net.

I don't see that dialect. Try SQLServerDialect instead?

MsSQL_200_Dialect? Is it typo in message or in config file?

The correct name is MsSql2000Dialect so fix the case also...

Copying and pasting you typing of the MsSql2000Dialect and using SetProperty worked. I think my config file is not getting uploaded right now.
