# @ Directives Reference

You can use @ processing directives in your scripts to send information to IIS about how to process an .asp file. For example, the following script uses the @LANGUAGE processing directive to set the scripting language to VBScript.

    <%@LANGUAGE=VBScript
      Dim myvar
      Application("myvar") = "This is my var"
      Response.Write(myvar)
    %>

The following five @ directives are supported by Active Server Pages (ASP) in IIS 5.1.

- @CODEPAGE
- @ENABLESESSIONSTATE
- @LANGUAGE
- @LCID
- @TRANSACTION
