Most features of the scripting object have identical CF functions. For
Scripting.FileSystemObject, use cffile; for scripting.dictionaries, use
structures.
Unless you require the ability to modify the IIS object itself (for
example an automated ISP app,) you shouldn't have a problem finding a
replica of the asp features in cf. And if there is an exception, you can
"usually" get the job done with cfobject.
