'name' is ambiguous in the namespace 'ADODB'

[NT4U]

Hi,

I am migrating an application from dotnet 1.1 to dotnet 2.0.

When i use the solution file created in dotnet 1.1, on building the solution in dotnet 2.0 i am getting the following two errors :-

'Fields' is ambiguous in the namespace 'ADODB'
'Stream' is ambiguous in the namespace'ADODB'

Any sort of help will be great.

Thanks in advance.

It means it have access to more then one class called "Stream" and "Fields"
You should hard reference them (i.e. instead of saying "Directory", you would say "System.Io.Directory", apply that kind of thinking to the "Stream" and "Fields" objects)

I got the same trouble in migrating from dotnet 1 to dotnet 2. It seems to me that it was caused by dotnet 2. It includes the both new verion of ADODB and the old version. However, I have not find way to delete the old version from the dotnet 2 project. If you start a new project in dotnet 2 from beginning and copy over your files, then you could avoid such a trouble.

Hi,

I just got it fixed by editing xxx.vbproj with notepad. You will see two entries in <Reference> section. Try to delete one of them to see.

Best wish!
