Can't get Global.asax to execute Sub

[tshad]

I have an example I copied from "programming asp.net" (o'reilly) and can't
seem to get the Sub (writefile) to execute. It displays all the
response.write lines that are called directly, but not any of the
response.write lines from inside the sub.

<%@ Application Language="VB" %>

<script runat="server">

Do I need to do something else to make this work?

It is a straight global.asax file in the root folder that is executing
correctly on my aspx page (except for the sub). At the moment I am passing
a string, but since I couldn't get it to work I just put a response.write
line in the sub.

Thanks,

Tom

While you may be lucky enough to find a dotnet-savvy person here who can
answer your question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your
question to a group where those dotnet-savvy people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.

The Response object is usually not available in any of these event
procedures, at least in classic asp, and I assume it's the same in dotnet.

Actually, I do use the .net group, but I accidently posted it here. Sorry.
