Easiest way to add "using blah" and references?

Hello,

I have previously coded a lot of Java using the Eclipse environment and
recently I have started a C# project in VS.NET 2003.

1) In Eclipse when some class missed the proper "import" statment one could
select "Organize Imports" (available using a special key combination) and the
proper import lines where added. Is there a similar easy way to add the
proper "using Blah" lines to a C# file?

2) Even when I have added the proper "using Blah" line it sometimes also
wants me to add a reference to some assembly. If you download a third-party
library you have to reference its .JAR files of course, but with C# I have to
add references very often even for trivial things like XML parsing etc. Is
there anyway I can get around this adding problem and somehow get it done
automatically?

regards,
martin
