  Hi all,

  I am new to asp and though my question may sound inane, please take out time to reply asap.

  I have to access key/value pairs defined in .config file from .asp page.

  I tried many ways but it is giving compilation and syntax errors.

  these are the errors i am getting: 

   
  Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ea' 
  Syntax error 
  /employer/employee/orderdetails.asp, line 2215 
  Response.write (<%getvalue(MailFromAddr)
  or 
  

  MailFrom_Addr is not defined.

  Please help me out.

  I've got a deadline.....

  Thanking you in anticipation......

  kris.

  you should use the global.asa ...

  the web.config is used in asp.net

  1)  to use the global.asa add this following to it :

  Sub Application_OnStart

  Application("Mail_From_Addr") = [email protected]

  End Sub

   

  2) to retrieve the data in your asp page you have to type

  response.write application.value("Mail_From_Addr")
