Session - ASP and ASP.NET

I have an entire site build with ASP, and so using GLOBAL.ASA .
Now I'm writing some codes with ASP.NET, but I need to share some SESSION
variables.
1. Is it possible using only my GLOBAL.ASA? Or I will need another
GLOBAL.ASAX?

2. What is the best way to share the SESSION?

Thanks,
Gustavo

There is no single great way to share session state between ASP and ASP.NET.
But that doesn't mean you don't have options.

Here are some common ways:
* Store the data in a common database
* Pass data from page to page on the QueryString
* Store the data in cookies
* Use a 3rd party session sharing component
(Here's one:

* Use COM Interop to provide an object that both sides can access that
handles the data.
Here's an example of the latter:

Classic ASP and ASP.NET do not share seesion or application data. You will
have to port the data back & forth yourself using any of several techniques
(cookies, database, querystring, hidden form field, etc.).

Also, Global.asa will still work with your classic pages but you will need a
global.asax to take advantage of the new events in .NET for the .NET pages.
