using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Web.Configuration;
using System.Text;
using System.Configuration;

Answer 1

You are missing these two namespaces using System.Web.UI; using System.Web.UI.WebControls; if you are using ASP.NET try this code hope it will help.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
public void loadSuppliers(DropDownList ddl)
{

}

Answer 2

Add namespace below

using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

If this still does not work ,try rebuilding the project. In Visual Studio , go to Build menu and select Rebuild option.

Answer 3
