Adding Namespace to web.config

[Turkbear]

Hi,
I have created a namespace containing several classes..( Compliled into a library .DLL)
( IIS 6, Win Server 2003, .Net 2)
This works fine when placed in the bin subdirectory of the application root that will use it (with a <%@ Import namespace="HrGeneral" %> tag)...

I would like to add it to the namespaces listed in the site's web.config file so that all applications on that site can use it..I added it and placed the .DLL in the '\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727' directory ( where the other ones seem to reside), but I obviously missed something, since it does not work- error indicates that the class is not being found)...

Did a miss a step ( like registering the .DLL, maybe) or have I missed a bigger concept here?

Thanks for helping a new .NET person...

The dll still needs to go into the bin folder in the root of the site. Then you can add the namespace to the namespaces group of the pages section in the web.config file

<pages 
			<namespaces>
				<clear/>
				<add namespace="Your.Namespace.Here"/>
				<add namespace="System"/>
				<add namespace="System.Collections"/>
				<add namespace="System.Collections.Generic"/>
				<add namespace="System.Collections.Specialized"/>
				<add namespace="System.Configuration"/>
				<add namespace="System.Text"/>
				<add namespace="System.Text.RegularExpressions"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web.Caching"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web.SessionState"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web.Security"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web.Profile"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web.UI"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web.UI.WebControls"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts"/>
				<add namespace="System.Web.UI.HtmlControls"/>
			</namespaces>
		</pages>

Hi,
Thanks..
Would that eliminate the need for the IMPORTS tag?
