Active Server Pages Programming (ASP) - global variables for asp.net

Expert: Srini Nagarajan - 9/18/2007

Question
Hello,
Where do I define or initialize a session variable, or any other global variable for that matter in an asp.net project? In ASP there was a global.asa page there by default. I don't know what's used in ASP.Net. Could you please help? Thank you SO much!
