Utility Class

[Jim Heavey]

I am trying to create a "Utility" class which will house common routines
that I use across a number of web applications. I thought that I could go
into an existing application an create a new Project and select a "Class
Library" and then create my little utilites.

If I try to import Namespaces such as System.Web.UI.HTMLControls, I am
unable to do so. So exactly what steps should I take to create a class of
web utilities..

If you just created a Class Project you will need to create references to
the System.Web assembly and others that are not already there by default.

Did you add references to the assemblies containing these NameSpaces?

OK, so a reference to System.Web is not placed there by default and I have
to add that reference....

Thanks!!!!!!

You are correct. It is not included by default because you are creating a
project of type "Class Library" which can be used in any type of
application. Therefore, a reference to System.Web is not necessarily
necessary, and is not added by default.
