    What is the difference between public and Global variables ?

    both of them are accessible for entire application. so what is the difference?

    Where you will use global and where you will use public ?

    Thanks

    There is no difference it's just that some time ago MS changed the name to Public but Global is still supported.

    Global is deprecated. It is there only for backwards compatibility. Use Public.
