"Cannot resolve symbol" error in VS with SMO

Question

Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc.dll

i have referenced all the above assemblies in my C# project but when i type

   Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Backup bkpDatabase = new Backup();

i get an this error "canot resolve symbol Backup" even when i have below using statements

using Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common;

Googling "Visual Studio cannot resolve symbol" suggests that this error is coming from ReSharper, not from VS itself, e.g. [this question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5539131/resharper-cannot-resolve-symbol-eval-in-vs2010-sp1). I've added the reharper tag so hopefully you get a better response now. — Pondlife, Aug 03 '12 at 20:35
