You would add it as a reference in the project. Right click on VS and add reference and browse to it.
In your file include a using statement for the namespace of the DLL and then you should be able to instantiate a new object.

Copy the "time picker.dll" into the Bin folder of your web-app and add <%@Register %> directive into your web-page to use that control.

This is normally wrong, because normally the
bin folder is put as "ignored" in your VCS (SVN, GIT, ...). You normally copy it in the source file folder (or in a folder named ExternalDependancies, or something similar) and add a reference. The <%Register %> part is correctxanatos
And yes, I know it's what Microsoft suggests for example here msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/az5kdaz0.aspx
Assuming dll package the typical ASP.NET server control, you have to add reference to the dll (VS Studio Project -> References -> Right-Click & Add Reference, Browse the dll file).
Next thing to do is to add the control on tool box by right clicking on the toolbox and selecting the control. Now you can drag the control on the ASP.NET Design surface. Alternatively, you can use the object browser to check the control name and use the register directive.
