Referencing Namespace from Web.Config

Can I declare namespaces in the web.config so that I don't have to write using statements for each namespace in each of my codebehind files?

You can do this for namespaces or common controls:

<system.web>
    <pages>
      <namespaces>
        <add namespace="The.Namespace" />
      </namespaces>
      <controls>
        <add tagPrefix="asp" namespace="System.Web.UI" etc... />
      </controls>
    </pages>
</system.web>

<configuration>
  <system.web>
    <pages>
      <namespaces>
        <add namespace="MyNamespace" />
      </namespaces>
    </pages>
  </system.web>
</configuration>

Is this what you're looking for?

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
   <system.web>
      <pages>
         <namespaces>
            <add namespace="MyNamespaces.NamespaceName" />
         </namespaces>
      </pages>
   </system.web>
</configuration>

MyNamespaces.NamespaceName will be now available for all of your pages in project.

cheers
