Changing VS.NET defaults

[Mark Fox]

Hello,

When you add a new web form in VS.NET it
automatically adds the following namespaces at the top:

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.SessionState;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

is there a way to make it so that VS.NET also
automatically includes

using System.Data.SqlClient;

? Thanks!

Right click on the project in "Solution Explorer". Select Properties. Then
go to the "Imports" tab, and add system.data.sqlclient.

Never mind. This option is only available for VB projects. In C#, it is on
the same dialog, on the left side, select the "Common Properties" folder,
and then select "References Path".

I'm using VS 2002

Thanks.
But I probably misunderstood. I thought it would add automatically using
directives to the source.

Sorry, I guess C# doesn't have the same ability on this dialog. In VB.NET,
it doesn't actually add the statements, but it uses the imports when
compiling your project.

Hello Mark,

I am glad you have found the right info already. Just a supplement that we could also add files to in this folder to add
template for ourselves.

Thanks very much for participating the community.

!Nevermind. I found the template I have to change. It's
!in
!
!C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
!Studio .NET\VC#\DesignerTemplates\1033
!
!You could change any of the default templates there.
!
!The VB templates are in
!
!C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vb7
!\DesignerTemplates
