Where do I put Imports in ASP.NET?

Question

I am trying to import the following:

Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient

In order to be able to use "Dataset()"

I am a beginner and don't know where to put the imports in ASP.NET. Please help!

Maybe these are not necessary? I am trying to import a remote XML file into a DropDownList.

Answer 1

It goes at the top of your class file. The .CS file associated to your page. Right-click on the ASPX file and click View Code. There should already be several imports statements in that file by default.

Answer 2

Put it above the declaration of your class.
