Thanks all. Carl, does cfparam as you described discretely tell CF and SQL that the insert is a numerical data type? In what instances is that advised? Why is it necessary?
I've isolated the issue to a server memory problem, I believe, and solved it (I hope) by restarting the server. Thank you all for your help. >John, > >You might want to try using CFQUERYPARAM in your insert query.
