You will have to add a reference to the project. Putting it in the code you want to import does not indicate where the assembly contains this namespace .

You have documentation that talks about this error .

Basic instructions for Visual Studio:

Open Solution Explorer.
Right click mouse click on your project and choose Add Reference...
On the .NET tab, look for the assembly with the same name as the namespace you want to import and click on OK .

It's not complicated to do this but if you're having trouble even finding out the name of the language you're using it can become a very hefty burden to sort this out.
