Thanks for you interest Brian. No the ybunp9 is the directory above the root. It's what is added by the expandpath() part of the path to coldspring. is that not what i should do?
here's the line i am using in the code: <cfset BeanFactory = createObject("component","coldspring.beans.DefaultXmlBeanFactory")/> and the fullly qualified path to DefaultXmlBeanFactory.cfc is C:\websites\ybunp9\coldspring\beans\DefaultXmlBeanFactory.cfc Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month On 10/24/07, Brian Kotek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'd wager that the problem has to do with the fact that this is a shared > host.
