For more on this, please see: http://www.apache-asp.org/objects.html#%24Response-%3EI2a8df2f3 You can also use globals, which you can declare for your entire application in your global.asa # global.asa use vars qw($Var1 $Var2); sub Script_OnStart { $Var1 = ''; $Var2 = 0; } I would strongly suggest you use locally scoped my() variables when possibly passing as @args to an include, but sometimes having a global can be handy which is why I mention the latter. --Josh _________________________________________________________________ Joshua Chamas Chamas Enterprises Inc.
