I hope that someone can please help me with my two errors.</p> <p>I do not know how I created My.CopyOfMySettingsProperty but I do know they were created when I was trying to create a project by combining my previous four projects. </p> <p>Listed are the two errors from my error list window that I need to correct along with my offending code:</p> <pre><code>Error 1 'Settings' is ambiguous between declarations in Modules 'Assign5Multi.My.MySettingsProperty' and 'Assign5Multi.My.CopyOfMySettingsProperty'.
