Hi, Michael... I've used cffile many times to upload documents, but never to rename them, so I'm speaking from a lack of experience.
However, looking at the documentation, I see that the "source" is a full local system path with the filename, and the "destination" is also a full local system path, including the new name of the file. While the paths can be absolute or relative, it seems from your code below that neither the source nor the destination is a path. Also, you might try putting <cfoutput>#PAGE_clean_SERVERFILE#</cfoutput> <cfabort> after the cfset statement to make sure your file renaming to eliminate spaces is producing the desired name. One last thing...I just noticed that you've got only 1 "#" around cffile.SERVERFILE in your cffile statement. Is that in your source, also? Rick > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael E.
