Parser Error Message: The base class includes the field 'txt_Brn_Name', but its type (System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox) is not compatible with the type of control (System.Web.UI.WebControls.DropDownList).

ASP.NET

<asp:DropDownList ID="txt_Brn_Name" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
Height="16px" onselectedindexchanged="txt_Brn_Name_SelectedIndexChanged"
Width="201px">
<asp:ListItem>

ASP.NET

<asp:DropDownList ID="txt_Brn_Name" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"

Solution 1

You changed it in the HTML, but not in your Page class C# code: Use VS to "Find All References" and you should see the CS definition.

Solution 2

HI,

Try a test case :
1. Add an original control of dropdown.
2. Compare both controls.

Try to identify the error and remove that.
