I am trying to build my WiX Project in Visual Studio 2010, but everytime I build, I receive the following error messages:
Unresolved reference to symbol 'Media1' in section 'Fragment:'
Unresolved reference to symbol 'Media1' in section 'Product{67DC7AE3-030F-4A24-AC3F-7AE7D0C32D07}'
The project includes one Product.wxs file and one heat-generated wxs someComponents.wxs (my fragment) file. I am referencing components in the heat-generated wxs file in Product.wxs. The sections where I am getting the errors are as follows:

If someone could point me in the right direction to resolve this issue--or maybe point out something I am missing--that would be greatly appreciated! Also please let me know if any additional information is needed to help answer this question, I try and provide as much information as possible.
