its simply a tcp/ip sql server connection. you can connect to remote servers anyway using sql server 2000, and im pretty sure you can using7.0
your challenge is to make that tcp/ip connection propagate to the odbc panel in cf admin, if im correct in my thinking. so that you can then make an odbc datasource. I would think this was possible, although I havent done that before, I have connected to remote sql servers, simply by registering them, but instead of using Named Pipes, the netbios name, I used the sql server machines IP Address. one caveat, make sure you have that connectivity capability installed in your sql server setup. ..tony Tony Weeg Senior Web Developer Information System Design Navtrak, Inc.
