Hello, I'm working on a WinForms project in VS2017, and I keep getting this interface error, "Duplicate component name: 'XXXX'" on nearly every page I work on.
I'm pretty certain that this is a VS error, and has nothing to do with any actual duplicated fields, as I've searched repeatedly to try and find such.
I'd guess that it has something to do with the master pages, as the control most often complained about is the ContentPlaceHolder tag. Sometimes however, the problem interferes with other controls, like grids and datasources, making it so that they cannot be accessed through the visual panel.
I can however continue to do most everything through the code panel, and the code compiles and runs fine but I'd like to find the source of the error in case it creeps up on me later. Then, as I keep working, editing & saving, the error will sometimes clear itself out, and everything displays normally.
Anybody got any ideas on how to track this down in VS?
Thanks in advance,
Jon
