I tried it and got pretty far. Unfortunately, I got a "Optional feature not implemented" error when I tried to use the getColumns() method. So I guess that method isn't supported for MS Access.
I guess I will look into the CFMX7 Administrator API. I am trying to work on a solution that woould work for CFMX 6.1 and above and the API doesn't look promising for this problem at a glance. so... If anyone has any more thoughts I would be grateful. As, indeed, am I for all of the thoughts thus far. Thanks!
