Hello, I am attempting to move an ASP.Net application from 2003 to 2005. I
did not open the application up in 2005, but rather created a new application
and moved all the components into the new project. Granted, this was
probably not the way to go, but it did show me what has changed and I had to
do a little reasearch to resolve the errors.

There are a few remaining errors which I am currently stumpted and a few
question about what I did to make it work that I am looking to confirm.

Issues:
1. I have a stand alone class contained in the project which is in the main
directory. One of my pages attempts to define a variable for this class, but
I get a compile error on the page which is creating this variable indicating
that it does not recognize the name of the class. They both are in the same
Namespace. The specific error is "Error 122 The type or namespace name
'ScoreCardTableBuild' could not be found (are you missing a using directive
or an assembly reference?)" I get no errors in the compiler for that class,
so why does he not recognize the class?
2. I have a purchased control which generates HTML code for that control on
my web page. The compiler flags some of the attributes of the generated HTML
code and indicates in the error message "Validation (ASP.Net): Attribute
'value' is not a valid attribute of the element 'Button'. Is this a
compatability issue or is there something I have neglected to do to make the
control know to the compiler (I have created a reference to the control...is
there something else which needs to be done)?

Confirmation:
All of the generated code which exists on my old ASP.Net pages should be
removed. This includes the generated methods, all the generated code for
events and all of the variable declarations for the controls which were added
on the web page.

Thanks in advance for your assistance!
