I am using a partial class to add methods to a context object.

namespace AddressCleansing
{    
  public partial class service
  {
    internal void Save()
    {
      Result result = new Result();
      if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(AccountCode))
      {
        string newAccountCode;
        result = CreateAccount(out newAccountCode);
      }
    }
  }
}

When I attempt to load a web page (and not one that uses the code) there's a compilation error:

Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.

Compiler Error Message: CS1061: 'AddressCleansing.service' does not contain a definition for 'AccountCode' and no extension method 'AccountCode' accepting a first argument of type 'AddressCleansing.service' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

The app is using Code First Entity Framework.

Make sure the partial class definitions have the same class name and are in the same namespace. – helb Mar 24 '14 at 12:28
Both of these appear correct. The app compiles successfully. The error only appears when trying to load a page. – KevinManx Mar 24 '14 at 12:51
Where have you written `AccountCode()` function? – Microsoft DN Mar 24 '14 at 13:14
AccountCode is a column in the table database (i.e. a property of the service entity object) – KevinManx Mar 24 '14 at 13:16
Probably you don't have column AccountCode in your database – Uriil Mar 24 '14 at 13:55
