Answer / manas
When ever we r planning to use the scripts in different
environment then , where developing them itself we need to
declare all the comonly used variables in many tests and
the veriables may not to be updated whenever the
environment is changed separatelyin an environment file.
Then one need to attach that environment file to the
required test and use those variables inside these tests.
so that in future any changes new to be made accordingly to
the environment . one can just do those changes in
environment file. so that all the script can be confortable
used in that environment.
these r two types of environment veriable

Environment Variables are Global variables which scope
doesn't changes throughtout test execution,regardless of
the number of iterations,unless you change the values of
the variable programatically in your script.It use variable
values from other sources during the run session.These may
be values you supply or values that Quick Test generates
for you based on conditions and options you choose.
There are three types of Environment Variables.
1.Built-in
2.User-Defined Internal
3.Used-Defined External

Answer / sekhar
Hai Sriram,
Environment variable means, when we define these
variables we can call these variables in within the text
out side of the text,in QTP once we define the variable
againg we can't reuse those variable, but Enviroment
variable we can use as our require ment.
these variable may define into 3 ways
i) user define internall
ii) External
iii) Built in
user define internall mean we can call these variables
with in the text.
External variales means we can call within the text and
out side of the text, we can do modifcation also means we
rename it.
built in variable means we can call internall and external
purpose but we can't do any modification, readonly purpose.
i think u got it.

Answer / venkateshwarlu
these variables are using in automation scripts which are
to be executed in different environments, so that these
variables are called as environment variable.
as testing part we neet to execute the test scripts in
different environments like unit, system, alpha, production
testings. where the information of all these environment
is different. so we use these variables to store the
information to execute the script successfully in different
environments.
