problem in getting the path of variable set in bashrc in my shell script

hi all

i have joined new to the group.

i have set an variable in my bashrc file.
.bashrc
PROGHOME=/home/braf/braf/prog
export PROGHOME

but while using it in my shell script its path is not taken and i had to explicitly give the export command to set the path.

in my script file
PROGHOME=/home/braf/braf/prog
export PROGHOME

if i give export the script is executing and taking the file from correct path but not directly from bashrc.

can anyone help me over this plz
