I have a problem with System.Type.GetType method.

If you try out the following code in C# console app ..

System.Type t = System.Type.GetType("System.DateTime");
System.Type t1 = System.Type.GetType("DateTime");

t is set to the appropriate Type object
but the second call returns null (when I dont specify the namespace
name)

The documentation mentions that the current assembly and Mscorlib.dll
is searched...but I dont think that 'Mscorlib.dll' is being searched.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ady
