Where is the Global.asax.cs file?

Question

I am using VS 2008. I have created a new Asp.net web site project from File->New->Website->Asp.net Website.

Now I want to add the Global.asax as well as the .cs file

Answer 1

That's because you created a Web Site instead of a Web Application. The cs/vb files can only be seen in a Web Application, but in a website you can't have a separate cs/vb file.

Edit: In the website you can add a cs file behavior like..

<%@ Application CodeFile="Global.asax.cs" Inherits="ApplicationName.MyApplication" Language="C#" %>

~/Global.asax.cs:

namespace ApplicationName
{
    public partial class MyApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication
    {
        protected void Application_Start()
        {
        }
    }
}
