Problems with accessing ASP.NET Session values in ASP

[Guest]

Hi!
I'm porting an ASP application to ASP.NET 1.1 and having problems with
accessing Session values in ASP that were created and initialized in ASP.NET
1.1.

For example, I added a variable in an ASP.NET pages Page_Load routine, C#:

Int32 Member = 12;
Session.Add("Member", U_Member.ToString());

When I try to access it in an ASP page as follows:

<%
Dim Member
U_Member = Session("Member")
%>

U_Member is empty!

Can any one help me on this!

/Thanks

I think that you've got your variables wrong.

Int32 Member = 12;
Session.Add("Member", U_Member.ToString());

Shouldn't the last statement be:
Session.Add("Member", Member.ToString())?
If so then retreiving the Member parameter from session object will return
"12".
Hope this helps

You can't. ASP and ASP.Net share different memory spaces. The best you can do
is to come up with some other scheme to share session values. i.e. as a
common database table, pass in querystrings, etc..

We've done this on a number of apps and it's a pain but it does work.
