Compilation Error - Please Help

[James Zhuo]

Hi all

I've been getting the following compilation error. I should explain the
background of the project that i am taking over. This is a project that has
been developed by someone else a while ago using dreamweaver, I am basically
trying to migrate the project into a Visual Studio .NET environment before I
start enhancing it.

Any suggestions on where the source of error may be would be greatly
appreciated.

Cheers

James

Apparently, you have a class which has multiple definitions within the same
namespace in your code. Should be pretty easy to track down. Are you using
C#? If so, it is certainly possible to create 2 class files, define the same
namespace in each, and create a duplicate class within the same namespace.

Thanx Kevin.

Yes I am using C#. Following your suggestion, I'll try to give it a more
thorough look 2moro when I get to work as it is a medium size project
(rather large from my perspective)

The thing I don't quite get tho is - this project is already a working
project, it currently compiles and runs on a production server. All i am
trying to do is get it to run under the Visual Studio environment so that i
can enhance it with less hassle. I have hardly started any modification to
the current code, the only changes that i have made is with reference to the
web.config file and some changes to aspx <% page directive where the code
behind files are defined (the last person who worked on the project put all
the project files within a ./cs directory).

Cheers

PS: I'll certainly post back with any positive results.
