For the preferences :

<cfquery name="prefs" ....>
SELECT folderdisplay FROM tblPreferences
WHERE UserID = #session.userid#
</cfquery>

<cfcookie name="folderprefs" value="#prefs["folderdisplay"][1]#">

For the directory listings :

<cfdirectory action="LIST" directory="d:\" name="deedrive" sort="dirname
ASC">

<cfoutput query="deedrive">
    <cfif deedrive.type is "Dir" and
ListFind(cookie.folderprefs,deedrive.name)>
    #name#<br>
    </cfif>
</cfoutput>


Hope that helps.

Regards

Stephen
