Web Application Project

After working for a while to get this Converted ASP.NET 2.0 VS.Net 2005 VB.Net 2005 (8.0) Application to completely build, I ran into Parser Error Message: Could not load type '.Global'.

I found another answer

Hi, just thought I'd share my answer to this frustrating problem.

Basically what I found was that for some reason, the class names that my .aspx pages where inheriting from were wrong. What happened
was that when checking the project in to source control, I had actually named my solution "Something.Net". This meant that all my
code behind inheritance directives said "Something.Net.class". (i.e. Something.Net._default) This may have been a problem.

When I noticed that, I recreated the solution as just "Something" and copied the files from the old solution. I then had to go in to the .aspx files
and change the page directives so that the pages inherited from Something._default.

After that it worked fine.

Good luck.

I say to myself, "Oh, )&(^*&%(&*)(>, I remember having to change the application name. So, I open a code file in VS.NET 2005 and type Imports . And sure enough no Global ... then I remember some of my components seem to have dropped a level so I type .. and ther is my GLOBAL.
I open 1) Global.asax in NotePad, 2) change the Inherits=".Global" to Inherits="..Global" 3) Save & Close the file 4) rebuild the project
It worked ...
Now why in the code does my project have a split class set with some classes under and others under .????

And onto other Parse Errors ...

Nuance - ASP.NET

Nuance - ASP.NET VB.NET 2005 .NET 2.0 GridView Button

Some things are so simple that most people do not think to document them.

For example:
“How do you set a GridView caption a different color then the rest of the grid?”
The simplest way is to set the GridView ForeColor equal to the color you want the caption then set the HeaderStyle and RowStyle ForeColor equal to the default color
So if you wanted a red caption and black text in the column name and rows …

    <asp:gridview id="GridView1" runat="server"
        ...
        caption="Your Caption" forecolor="red">
        <HeaderStyle ForeColor="black" />
        <RowStyle ForeColor="black" />
        <Columns>
        ...
