I currently have three user controls set up for this module that I am starting to write.  Two of the three (Settings and View) are already included in the namespace.  The third (Edit) works just fine when it is not included in the namespace.  When I try to include it in the namespace I am getting the following (very undescriptive) error (on the front end), any idea why?

DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: External component has thrown an exception. ---> System.Web.HttpCompileException: External component has thrown an exception. at System.Web.Compilation.AssemblyBuilder.Compile() at System.Web.Compilation.BuildProvidersCompiler.PerformBuild() at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.CompileWebFile(VirtualPath virtualPath) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultInternal(VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultWithNoAssert(HttpContext context, VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile) at System.Web.UI.TemplateControl.LoadControl(VirtualPath virtualPath) at System.Web.UI.TemplateControl.LoadControl(String virtualPath) at DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.Skin.InjectModule(Control objPane, ModuleInfo objModule, PortalSettings PortalSettings) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

The external component exception is often caused by a problem in your .ascx file. I'd begin by double and triple checking that the full namespace.class used in the Inherits attribute of the @ Control tag of the .ascx exactly matches that you are using in the codefile or codebehind.  Is there any possibility that there is an ambiguity in the namespace?

Also check that any methods referenced in databinding constructions in the .ascx are not out of scope when the namespace is added.

William,

First issue was the problem.  Since I am still fairly new to DNN Module development that is probably to be expected.  Thanks again for your help.
