Dear All,

I am having trouble creating my own class which inherits from System.Web.UI.Page

This is the error Iget: -

"The type or name 'UI' does not exist in the does not exist in the class or namespace System.Web Are you missing an assembly reference)"

Any ideas

Thanks

Never seen that before... did you happen to have any problems with installing the .NET framework?

Are you inheriting from System.Web.UI or System.Web.UI.Page? There is a conflict between your topic subject and the message. System.Web.UI is a namespace and you can not inherit from it. You must inherit from a class (Page).

This is a problem with Visual Studio when you start creating your own page classes (beyond just the single web form page class that the ASPX inherits at runtime). When you build a web form in visual studio, the ASPX file has an inherits statement which maps to a class that is defined in the page's code behind. This code behind class is inherited from System.Web.UI.Page. I have found that when one of the page classes is derived from an intermediate class visual studio has a problem recognizing that the class *eventually* was derived from System.Web.UI.Page. This won't cause any problems when you build and run the code, but it just makes VS a pain. It won't let you view the page in the designer and you'll get that warning.
