Importing an assembly?

Hi All

I am trying to get access to an assembly in an ASPX project. I have added
the assembly to GAC using gacutil and added an "%@Import namespace =
"MyNamespace" %" to the .aspx file but this is seemingly not enough since
the using directive in the .aspx.cs file gives the error:

"The type or namespace name "MyNamespace" could not be found (are you
missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"

Erm, it's the using directive is there. It just fails to compile - and what
on earth is an assembly reference?

More generally, where (and how) can I find the information on how to do
this?

BTW, is your opinion on the Visual Studio help system as low as mine? I find
it virtually impossible to find any information on how to do tasks. Google
is usually much better although in this case it has failed me as well.

Ebbe
