I had this problem as I created a class  quot Response cs quot  inside a folder named  quot Response quot   So VS was catching the new Response    as Folder namespace  So I changed the class name to StatusResponse cs and called new StatusResponse   This solved the issue

All the answers indicate the cause  but sometimes the bigger problem is identifying all the places that define an improper namespace  With tools like Resharper that automatically adjust the namespace using the folder structure  it is rather easy to encounter this issue  You can get all the lines that create the issue by searching in project   solution using the following regex  namespace     TheNameUsedAsBothNamespaceAndType

Please check that your class and namespace name is the same     It happens when the namespace and class name are the same   do one thing write the full name of the namespace when you want to use the namespace   using Student Models Db   namespace Student Controllers       public class HomeController   Controller                  GET  Home         public ActionResult Index                         List lt Student gt  student   null              return View

I suspect you ve got the same problem at least twice  Here  namespace TimeTest       class TimeTest              you re declaring a type with the same name as the namespace it s in  Don t do that  Now you apparently have the same problem with Time2  I suspect if you add  using Time2   to your list of using directives  your code will compile  But please  please  please fix the bigger problem  the problematic choice of names   Follow the link above to find out more details of why it s a bad idea    Additionally  unless you re really interested in writing time-based types  I d advise you not to do so    and I say that as someone who does do exactly that  Use the built-in capabilities  or a third party library such as  um  mine  Working with dates and times correctly is surprisingly hairy
