Hello,
I'm having some wierdness with a report I've created in VB.NET (with Crysal Reports).
The report is called repCPDocSubmissionSummary.vb
I created it a while ago, and have been using it successfully for months.
Today I went in and did some edits, saved and closed it.
Then, when I tried to build my project, I kept getting an error about ambiguous name (repCPDocSubmissionSummary).
I looked in the folder, and saw there was a repCPDocSubmissionSummary and a 'copy of repCPDocSubmissionSummary' - so I deleted the copy. When I tried to build the project, I get an error that it can't find the 'copy of repCPDocSubmissionSummary'. But if I leave it, I get the ambiguous error.
I have no idea what caused this, or how to fix it.
Any suggestions?
TIA!
Amber
 
Hi Amber,
I had this happen to me last week with an application I developed back in January but hadn't distributed. I opened it up after months of just sitting there and suddenly had what you described happen. I simply renamed (in the solution explorer) my report from crOneSheet.rpt to crOneJobSheet.rpt and then edited my 'Dim cr1 As New crOneSheet' to 'Dim cr1 As New crOneJobSheet' reflecting the change and magically it was ok. I pushed out the installation file to my users (finally) and no problems reported.
