In CF6 or CF7? I know in 6, it is a piece of cake to get the key for encrypt/decrypt... Not tried in 7 yet, but I am sure it is achievable with a little work and Googling :-) "This e-mail is from Reed Exhibitions (Gateway House, 28 The Quadrant, Richmond, Surrey, TW9 1DN, United Kingdom), a division of Reed Business, Registered in England, Number 678540.

(I am not sure if that was because I was selling lots admin software and add ons or not) Second the password attribute in cfquery overrides the datasource password and lastly you have to encode the password before you add it to neo. I can't imagine editing neo-query manually and adding an unencrypted password. If it works let us know. I assume CF decrypts the password before it is used anyway. Of course I know how to encrypt and in the right format, but I am not telling.
