Q:

Unable to use Microsoft.Web.Helpers in Razor view vbhtml file

I want to use the Linkshare helper in the Microsoft.Web.Helpers dll. I added the reference to my project but if attempt to use it in the vbhtml file Visual studio underlines it with a blue squiggly and tells me it is inaccessible blah blah. I even added references to those webmatrix dlls as described here: http://hadsy.net/2011/01/19/ASPNETMVC3MicrosoftWebHelpersErrorTheTypeOrNamespaceNameSimpleMembershipProviderCouldNotBeFound.aspx
How can i get the linkshare and other helpers to work? 

A:

the solution  is to build the project after adding the assembly reference 
then I was able to use the linkshare helper
