Usually takes me much longer :-{

I think you are referring to my comment of "If I add this..." What I should have said was if I type this. I was trying (not well) to say that if I use the fully qualified name when the Import statement is there it gives me an error. If I take out the part that is already Imported, the error is gone.

>I can use the fully qualified name so long as I don't include that in the Import statement. I like to use the Import so I don't have to type the fully qualified name everywhere. But when there is one item that causes ambiguity, I was trying to get around it. It looks like I can use your suggestion above with alias.

So you're sorted now ?
I still don't see how a fully qualified namespace would cause an error based on prior Imports statements though ?
