Class error/query

I thought I was starting to understand classes, but this error has been bugging me and I can't figure out what the problem is. Obvisouly I don't understand them as well as I thought I did ^_^. Here's a simple class attempt which returns the same error when I try to compile it

Code:

#ifndef MYCLASS_H
#define MYCLASS_H

class MyClass
{
      private:
              std::string a;
       public:
              MyClass();
              MyClass( std::string a_ );      
};

#endif

Code:

#include "myclass.h"

MyClass::MyClass()
{
         a = "Hello";        
}

MyClass::MyClass( std::string a_ )
{
                  a = a_;                  
}

Code:

#include "myclass.h"

int main()
{
    return 0;    
}

Here is the first error msg I get, I'm pretty sure I only need to fix one thing to get rid of the other messages

7 C:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\myclass.h using-declaration for non-member at class scope

My guess is that it's got something to do with "std::string", but that's just a guess, the truth is I don't really know

Kind Regards

Yes, myclass.h should include <string> - that way, you can use std::string there.

Edit: I must say that the error-message isn't exactly the most obvious ones for this type of error.
