ASP script chokes on Option Explicit 1

[SBendBuckeye]

No matter how I try to code it, my file errors out on the Option Explicit line. I have language set to VBScript. Any ideas on this?

Thanks!

Have a great day!

Hey,

I can't see your code so this is just a guess but Option Explicit has to be the very first ASP statement on the page before it will work.

If that isn't the problem try posting some code for us to look at.

Hello Travis,

Thanks for your help! I had an include directive first. Once I moved that under the Option Explicit as below everything worked fine.

This works fine

<% @ Language = &quot;VBScript&quot; %>
<% Option Explicit %>
<!-- #Include Virtual=&quot;/IncludeFiles/KevinDemp.asp&quot; -->
<% Rest of code %>

This didn't work

<!-- #Include Virtual=&quot;/IncludeFiles/KevinDemp.asp&quot; -->
<% @ Language = &quot;VBScript&quot; %>
<% Option Explicit %>
<% Rest of code %>

Have a great day!

yep, that'll get you every time.
I'm glad you got it figured out.
