Partial classes can't be compiled either. However, the complete classes that
are created either from one part of a partial class which can be used as a
stand-alone class, or from several partial classes combined, can be
compiled, inherited, you name it.
The key here is that a "partial class" is not a class at all. It is a
convenience for the developer, a way of separating the code which
constitutes a class when built can be spread across several source files. In
addition, it provides the ability to recombine these partial class files
into a variety of different versions of a class. I'm not sure how useful
that is, though.
The actual *class* doesn't exist until it is compiled.

In a web application using asp.net 2.0
All my classes are partial classes.
- I noticed that partial class cannot be inherited... is that true?
- I tried to remove the partial keyword , and I receieved this error
Error 1 Missing partial modifier on declaration of type
'NagyResearch.Q_A.Q.QuestionnairePage'; another partial declaration of
this type exists D:\Web Sites\Local
Host\NagyResearch\Q_A\Q\QuestionnairePage.aspx.cs 14 18

although I haven't any another partial declaration.
