What is the Difference between Web.config and global.asax?
Can we write connection String code in global.asax?
Answer Posted / nidhi
Global.asax files allows you to executing ASP.Net application level events and setting application level variable.
The web.config file uses a predefined XML format. The entire content of the file is nested in a
root <configuration> element.
We can create more than one web.config file but we can't have more than one Global.asax file.
Yes we can write connection string in Global.asax file.
First store connection string in web.config file and fetch
in a Global.asax file using below code.
In global.asax
Application["VariableName"] = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnStr"].
ConnectionString;
Now to fetch the value from applictaion variable
string conn = Application["VariableName"].ToString();
