Nothing exist until you create it. The question makes no sense at all. What help do you expect? That someone find some declaration in your own files?

Please build your project properly. Or else delete that label and recreate it once more and build again.

if you are not missing the closing tag check if label has same id as you are trying to use in .cs file.
otherwise delete this add a new label give it a different name '' and build the solution and after that use it in .cs file

Probably, you are missing the closing tag: Have you deleted the slash from the end?

ASP.NET

<asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblMessage" Text="" class="multi">

Becomes

ASP.NET

<asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblMessage" Text="" class="multi"/>
