I've recently started doing Magento tutorials, since I'm starting a Magento job soon and they've asked me to study up on it so that I don't end up completely out of my depth when I start there.
I'm currently going through this and have hit a snag on page 11. At least, I think I have. I'm not sure, which is why I'm posting this question.
At this point, I have the following:

In other words, I have the bare basic start of a new Module.
I tried checking the admin configuration panel to ensure that my module was being picked up. I have disabled my cache, and double checked to make sure that nothing was actually cached.
When I try to access any page, I get the following error:
Module "Magentostudy_News" requires module "Mage_adminhtml".
#0 D:\Work\Development\wamp\www\magento1\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\Config.php(849): Mage::throwException('Module "Magento...')
#1 D:\Work\Development\wamp\www\magento1\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\Config.php(812): Mage_Core_Model_Config->_sortModuleDepends(Array)
#2 D:\Work\Development\wamp\www\magento1\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\Config.php(315): Mage_Core_Model_Config->_loadDeclaredModules()
#3 D:\Work\Development\wamp\www\magento1\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\App.php(425): Mage_Core_Model_Config->loadModules()
#4 D:\Work\Development\wamp\www\magento1\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\App.php(354): Mage_Core_Model_App->_initModules()
#5 D:\Work\Development\wamp\www\magento1\app\Mage.php(684): Mage_Core_Model_App->run(Array)
#6 D:\Work\Development\wamp\www\magento1\index.php(83): Mage::run('', 'store')
#7 {main}
I think I might have made a mistake somewhere in the config.xml, but I have compared my code with the tutorial and I can't find anything wrong.
Is there anything else that I missed? The tutorial treats Mage_adminhtml
as though it's part of the core Magento package, but I am not sure.
Any help at this point would be greatly appreciated.
