A:
I suspect you've got the code like this:
class MyPage : Page
{
Panel p = this.Master.FindControl("panel1") as Panel;
p.Visible = false;
}
You can't just put code in the class like that - everything other than declarations (e.g. fields) needs to be in a method:
class MyPage : Page
{
public void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Panel p = this.Master.FindControl("panel1") as Panel;
p.Visible = false;
}
}

@Jon..I have added this code inside of Page_Load event only

I go with Jon's answer. Otherwise this error message is not possible. Check the placement of your code and check the placement and existence of the braces ({})

@user289524: As Mario says, that's what the error message is about. I suggest you keep a backup of your code, and then remove everything extraneous until you've got nothing but the class declaration and enough of Page_Load to show the error. I'm sure when you start removing bits, you'll find the error.
