I'm not sure how I can do this. For example:

%>
<!--- ***** or ***** --->
<!-- #include file="second.asp?a=2" -->
-----file end: FIRST.ASP --------------
Now, if I do a Request.QueryString("a") in second.asp, is it
performing a query on FIRST.ASP then? How can I retrieve the
parameter?
Yes. Try it. You'll see.
I did. Didn't work. I'm hoping someone smarter than you knows the
answer.

Silly. I was answering "yes" to your first question: "is it performing a
query on FIRST.ASP then?". I don't tend to answer "yes" to a question that
begins with "How".
Speaking of smarts, if you know enough to put "?a=2" into your #include
statement, why aren't you smart enough to simply put
dim a
a=2
into FIRST.asp? Then simply reference the a variable in second.asp (this
won't work with server.execute, but should work fine with a #include)
