Have you tried including your code within a script tag inside the global.asax file?

<script runat="server">
    <object id="MyObjectName" runat="server" scope="application" class="DotNetClassName" />
</script>

Is there a reason why you are not using the Application object like the following:

Application("MyObjectName") = myobject

>I've been reading the docs on the Global.asax file and, according to what I've read, I should be able to add/create objects that are available to my application and web pages (they call them "Server-Side Object Tags"). The syntax is:
>
>

><object id="MyObjectName" runat="server" scope="application" class="DotNetClassName" />
>
