I'm attempting to follow David Betz' wonderful advice on how to use a library project in both your .NET and Silverlight code. In particular, I'm using his File-Level technique: I have a .NET library project already set up, so I created a Silverlight project, and added links in the latter to the former's files.
Unfortunately, there is a problem. I get compilation errors like crazy, of the form:
The type '...' exists in both 'Util.dll' and 'Util (Silverlight).dll'
In all of my other projects, I only reference one or the other. Neither Util dll has a reference to the other, so I'm not sure why the compiler can see both DLLs from any of the other projects.
Any ideas?

Argh! It really was this simple :) I just fixed the compilation issues other then this one, and it suddenly stopped complaining.
I also added to the linked projects Project Dependencies on the real projects, and that helped keep the errors more consistent, at least.
