can't inherit classes

[blueindian1]

hello,

i've written several classes under the namespace "theblueindian.uploadaccess" using this syntax:

Namespace theblueindian.UploadAccess


    Public Class FileForm : Inherits GenericPage
    .
    .
    .
    .
    .
    End Class
End Namespace

my problem is that when i try to inherit from them in an aspx page using this syntax:

<%@ Page language=&quot;c#&quot; Codebehind=&quot;file.aspx.cs&quot; AutoEventWireup=&quot;false&quot;
	Inherits=&quot;theblueindian.UploadAccess.FileForm&quot; %>

i get this error:

Parser Error Message: Could not load type 'theblueindian.UploadAccess.DefaultForm'.

do i have to do anything special to make this work?

I think the codebehind file has to inherit the webform..

In your codebehind file though you should be able to inherit the class es like this.

C#
using theblueinian.uploadaccess;

the classes within that namespace will then be avilable from within your code?

As an aside are you working in VB or C# or a mixture of the two as your Page declaration references a C# codebehind file but your namespace and classes are decalred in VB...

Hope this helps

i working in vb...the c# stuff is a typo.

my codebehinds are inheriting the webform, via the class Generic Page, which inherits the webform itself.

perhaps this will help clarify the problem:

if i try to import any of these classes i created, i get a compiler error that the says the namespace or type can't be found. ie. the statment

Imports theblueindian.UploadAccess.DataConn

procduces an error even in the project which i created that class in.

i think i might have some sort of setup error in visual studo.
