Classic ASP global.asa not passing application variable

[Madhusudana Babu]

IMy classic ASP app has a global.asa file in the root directory of the app 'SDT'.
I have set an application variable there:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=VBScri pt RUNAT=Server>

Sub Application_OnS tart
Application("st rEnv")= "Prod"
End Sub
</SCRIPT>
In an include page I try to retrieve the variable to detrmine data connections to be used:
Dim strApp
strApp = Application("st rEnv")

SELECT CASE strApp
Case "Dev"
<code>
Case "QA"
<code>
Case "Prod"
<code>
END SELECT

The problem is that the variable strApp is never populated.
What have I done wrong?

You can declare application variables in any asp page, I do it all the time. Is there any asp page in which you can define strEnv?
