Question

I am creating a site and thought I would do it correctly so I created an App_Code directory and created a class in there.

when im editing the class file the auto complete no longer works, which I can live with, however, no matter what I do in my main site I cant access or reference the class file.

ive tried
putting a using statement at the top of the file, but it just throws an error
creating an instance of the class in the code but that throws and error

can someone let me know where im going wrong

thanks

App_Code is used for Website projects and not for Web Application projects. It will not work as expected for web application projects. MSDN

Is your project a website or web application?
