These were used in classic ASP to simulate a lack of any inheritance model, or composability. In ASP.Net you can use inheritance to create common functionality. Master Pages for common layout, and user controls for composability.

Inheritance will work in all three of these situations as well.

MyPage: BasePage

MyControl: BaseControl

MyMasterPage: BaseMasterPage

You have a lot of options with ASP.Net because it is built on top of an Object Oriented framework.

You should use User Controls instead.

To share server-side code between pages, you should add C# classes to the App_Code folder.
