Hi, I had this error in Xilinx ISE 7.1 but I cannot understand why, or what to do about it. Any help appreciated. Thanks,

Design Summary
-------------- Number of errors : 1 Number of warnings :1132 Section 1 - Errors
------------------ ERROR:Pack:1142 - A problem was encountered updating the component types within the following shape: The RPM "uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/hset" A problem was encountered trying to change the type of the component containing the following symbols to "SLICEL". LUT symbol "uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/BU1006" (Output Signal = uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/N56436) (RLOC=X5Y10, Set=uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/hset) Shift symbol "uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/BU1014" (Output Signal = uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/N56799) (RLOC=X5Y10, Set=uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/hset) FLOP symbol "uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/BU1017" (Output Signal = uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/N720) (RLOC=X5Y10, Set=uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/hset) The component is already of type "SLICEM". The setting of the component type is necessary since it is an odd number of columns away from a component which already has a type of "SLICEM". This second component contains the following symbols: Shift symbol "uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/BU996" (Output Signal = uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/N56748) (RLOC=X4Y10, Set=uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/hset) FLOP symbol "uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/BU999" (Output Signal = uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/N56731) (RLOC=X4Y10, Set=uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/hset) Shift symbol "uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/BU1001" (Output Signal = uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/N56768) (RLOC=X4Y10, Set=uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/hset) FLOP symbol "uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/BU1004" (Output Signal = uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/N56430) (RLOC=X4Y10, Set=uChip0_Cal1_XA1_TA0/hset) This architecture has two types of components, SLICELs and SLICEMs, in alternating columns. Only SLICEMs can contain RAM symbols.
