You got it Bud!! I was using the same application name in both
applications. I copied the code from one to the other, although I changed
the DSN I forgot to change the application name. So as soon as I changed
that, it worked without the hard code.
One more question:
Where do you put the <CFPARAM> tags you wrote above? If you put them in the
application.cfm page, do you then refer to the DSn as
datasource="attributes.dsn1"or "attributes.dsn2"?
Thanks for your patience and time!!

If you have 4 datasources, you would want 4 names.
application.settings.dsn1
application.settings.dsn2
application.settings.dsn3
application.settings.dsn4
I personally don't understand why you would want, or need, to set the
datasource names with application variables anyway.
<CFPARAM NAME="attributes.dsn1" DEFAULT="dsn1">
<CFPARAM NAME="attributes.dsn2" DEFAULT="dsn2">
Does it for me. :)
