>>Are your users in your C program also, or are they using browsers to send HTTP requests?
- Users use their browser to communicate with an application. - In this application, which by the way uses sessions and session variables, the programmer (not the user) communicates with the database through CF and ODBC or JDBC, and could communicate with the same datasource using another tool developed in C or JAVA, a CFX tag, for some other tasks to be done on the same datasource. I do this every day with my ODBCinfo tag which returns all what I need to know about datasources, CF not even knowing about it, and even if CF has no datasource defined on the database. For each query, a connection is opened and closed, but it could be kept open as well, a handle returned to the programmer (not the user) until further requests. -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
