Here is how I understand the issue: the timeout attribute is passed directly to the ODBC driver (or equivilent) from CF. That means that in order for it to work the driver must support it. Sounds to me like whatever driver you're using (probably the Oracle native driver) does not support timeout.

Running CFMX with updater on win2k pro, Oracle 8i If I specify a timeout setting for a query, it seems to have no effect. It does not throw an error if the timeout is surpassed...just seems to ignore it. Anyone using that attribute successfully?
