Solution 1

Then add the reference!

In VS, Open your project, and in the Solution Explorer right click your Project name, and select "Add Reference..."
In the dialog that appears, find the "FaceBook" assembly, highlight it, and press "OK".

It should now work!

Have you tried this: https://facebooktoolkit.svn.codeplex.com/svn/MAIN/doc/WinformDevelopment%20-%20Copy.html ?

You did notice that that tutorial links you to a discontinued SDK?
"Please note: After several months of analysis and recent discussions with Microsoft we have decided to discontinue support of this library. The library grew to the point that it is hard to maintain and was designed when Facebook's api was different"
Are you using the later version, or the version that tutorial refers to? I am not sure which is which here!
