Try writing a batch file that does what you want, then just cfexecute that instead, I have more luck doing it that way.
Craig. -----Original Message----- From: Terry Troxel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 07 October 2002 16:19 To: CF-Talk Subject: CF execute HELP I have never used cfexecute before and could use a few pointers before I suffer early hair loss. Here is what I am attempting to do. I would like to run Access from the command line opening a database with a linked table in it that will be copied to another datasource using an autoexec macro which has a copy object call as it's action. The reason I am doing this is my financial package (MAS90) uses illegal characters in its database table naming that Access can handle, but not CF. So I am attempting to create a new table everytime I open the test.mdb. It works fine in windows 2000, but not in a CF template using the following parameters. This is an intranet app. <cfexecute name = "C:\program files\microsoft office\office\msaccess.exe" arguments = "c:\inetpub\databases\test.mdb" timeout = "100"> </cfexecute> If anyone can show me the correct method to accomplish my task I would greatly appreciate it.
