Board index » Visual Studio » Global.asax.vb in Visual Studio .NET 2005

Visual Studio180
I recently upgraded from Visual Studio .NET 2003 to Visual Studio .NET 2005.

Visual Studio .NET 2005 does not create the Global.asax files that Visual

Studio .NET 2003 did, which I used for variables such as the location of my

database. What is the conventional way of creating global variables for

purposes like this in Visual Studio .NET 2005? Thanks.

re:

"File", "New File", and select "Global Application Class".



Then...code away global variables to your heart's content.

OK, but then how do I access this variable in all my pages? In 2003 this was

a class named Global, and I would access variables by doing something like

Global.connectionstring. However, doing what you told me just creates

Global.asax, which is not a *.vb file. Maybe it doesn't need to be to access

it however you access it in 2.0, but either way, I can't seem to figure out

how to access it in 2.0. Thanks.

firstly, you don't need to copy this to all these groups. secondly, if you

like 2003, you should use the WAP model for visual studio.

First, there is nothing wrong with "copying" the message to multiple groups

(the message is only posted once, so it doesn't take up any more space on

the server, and you only see it multiple time if you read all the groups).

Do I prefer 2003? Yes, I do, but I want to learn 2005. If I procrastinate

with my learning, where is that going to get me?
