I'm not certain about the added carriage return -- my gut feeling is to say that the original file has an extra at the bottom as a result of it being appended to with <cffile action="append"> in other bits of code elsewhere... or possibly <cffile action="write">... using cffile to write or append to files always seems to require a bit of tweaking the whitespacer monster... You could of course simply read the file and then output the content instead as so: <cffile action="read" file="#fname2#" variable="temp"> <cfcontent type="text/plain"> <cfoutput>#trim(temp)#</cfoutput><cfabort> This will likely process faster as well and won't ever leave extra files in that temp folder if something stops working in the middle. s. isaac dealey 972-490-6624 new epoch http://www.turnkey.to lead architect, tapestry cms http://products.turnkey.to tapestry api is opensource http://www.turnkey.to/tapi team macromedia volunteer http://www.macromedia.com/go/team certified advanced coldfusion 5 developer http://www.macromedia.com/v1/handlers/index.cfm?ID=21816 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
