Application Variable and Ordinary Variable

What makes the difference between creating an application Variable and a ordinary variable created in global.asa file,
since both can be used in all the pages of the application.

Would any one answer my doubt.

There are
APPLICATION VARIABLES
SESSION VARAIBLES
And Variables u use on a Per page(*.asp) basis

The difference However is an Application VAriable is
common to all those Users of the application.


Let Say you have asp application and 100 users access it at a time. When you store something in an application variable
It is common for all those 100 and this is a variable
on a per application basis.

Now If it is a session variable it is for a particular session.Even if a single user opens 100 sessions ,each session variable can have different values.

The ordinary Variables - will be out of scope after the page
they are declared is completely processed and deliver to the user.
