I think they are referring to this way of 'stealing' data: <cfapplication name="some other guys apps"> <cfset myCopy = duplicate(application)> <cfapplication name="original name of application">
All this will do is copy over the other app's application data. I _think_ I wrote a UDF for this on cflib.org.
