Trying to publish ASP.NET project, but VS can't find a particular file

One of the css files disappears from the publish obj/Release/Package/PackageTmp/ folder during publishing and then VS tells me it can't find the file. It's as if one portion of the project says to delete the file and the other tries to find the file. Any ideas? I hope I gave enough info. It's short, but pretty much sums up the issue to my knowledge.

csproj file. The only file I'm having an issue with is the survey.css file. It appears just twice in the csproj file.

I would open your CSProj file up in a text editor and see if you can find where that file is referenced. A simple text search will help. Either you will discover where it is hiding inside your project, or you can just delete it using the text editor.
