Features for VC6
Automatically Insert Using Directives in C#
When you reference a common .NET type in your code when the associatedusing directive hasn't been added yet, Visual Assist X suggests adding the directive. When you accept the suggestion, the directive is inserted at the top of the current file, and the text cursor is returned to the point at which the symbol was inserted.
Unlike the similar Visual Studio 2005 feature, Visual Assist X presents the
using suggestion as you type -- there is no need to expand a smart tag to see the option.
This feature also works with Visual Studio .NET 2002/2003.
