I am working for first time with vb.net code, but I have 5 years experience with C#.
From the previous developer I was told that the code which is on the server runs fine without any errors, but as soon as I opened the website folder (the website doesn’t have solution file), I tried to build the site and I got tons of errors saying:
‘labelControl’ is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its
protection level.
That’s happening for all the controls on two of the pages I opened so far.
Here are parts of the markup, logic and designer code for one of the files:

Here are some of the errors I am getting:
What do you think could be the reason for this?
If your code is copied verbatim, then the class name in the Logic block is misspelled and doesn’t match the name in the designer file. This causes it to interpreted as two separate classes, which causes the errors. The code in the one file is not able to reference objects defined in the other file.
Fix the class name in the logic block to match the designer block and the errors should go away.
Edit: I noticed it was misspelled in the first line of the markup file as well. Be sure to fix the class name there too.
