The idea behind the driver is speed. It is definitely faster than CFHTTP -
but it has it's own nuances obviously.

Actually, if you uploaded it in the same request as the CFQUERY, it is
probably locked by CF, so you won't be able to use it through ODBC (which
runs as a separate process).

Someone suggested using CFHTTP to read it, and in my experience that has
often worked better than using ODBC, as unlikely as that might sound.
