Subfolder name appears in namespace even after deleting it

I had subfolder "mdichild" in c# solution in visual studio 2008 and was using it in code file as namespace.mdichild.

now i have deleted subfolder "mdichild" from solution and placed forms under root directory.

but still the subfolder name "mdichild" appears after namespace i.e. namespace.mdichild in code

why does this occur even after subfolder deletion ?

how to solve this problem so that subfolder name "mdichild" does not appear in code.

Hi Jayesh.

You have used the namespace as namespace.mdichild when you had subfolder. But now you deleted subfolder.

Still it works since it takes the global namespace for that forms.

If you want to remove subfolder name from code then do as follows.
Suppose think you have Form1 under subfolder mdichild of your c# solution.
1.Go to Form1.cs and remove mdichild word from namespace.
2.Go to Form1.Designer.cs and remove mdichild word from namespace.
3.Remove mdichild word from objects which you have created for Form1.

Mark answer if you are staisfied.

Have you refresh the solution explorer ?
Have your restart your Visual studio ?
After deleting sub folders solution will not take immediate effect. Please follow below steps
1. Open your solution and click on Build and clean solution
2. Click on rebuild menu to rebuild your project
Now check if it gives your same error

Hello Jayesh,

You have used the namespace as namespace.mdichild when you had subfolder. But now you deleted subfolder, But Still it will work since it takes the global namespace for that forms because when you design your form in c#, your designing will be saved into MyForm.Designer.cs file.

Then if you are removing any folder or control's event, Still it will be there and it will throw you an error so you have to remove that line of code from MyForm.Designer.cs file.

If you want to remove subfolder name from form then follow the below steps :
1. Go to MyForm.Designer.cs and remove mdichild word from namespace.
2. Remove mdichild word from objects which you have created for MyForm.

Hope this will help you.
Mark the answer if it helped you.
