Jim, nice tip about the names... I didn't know that. Nothing else is case sensitive... hmmm..... It seems inconsistent.

One other possible hitch that just recently hit us (when moving an app from CF 4.5 to MX7): Application NAMES in MX are case-sensitive. So, in our case there was an extraneous "cfapplication" tag deep in the code that spelled the app name the same, but used different case. Although this worked fine in 4.5 it creates a brand new (empty) application in MX. Once we removed the (unneeded anyway) cfapplication tag everything worked again.
