I suggest you delete and add your form again, if you didn’t made modifications too much.

I think this problem is caused by partial class. Let me explain. You can see your class is defined as partial class.

public partial class Contact : System.Web.UI.Page

So there can be another part of Contract class and that part can be corrupted or derived from another class. You can check this.
