I have a directory containing dated log files that I need to parse. These have filenames like:
reYYYYMMDD.log So I do a <cfdirectory> to pull a list of files: <cfdirectory action="list" directory="#mylogdir#" filter="re????????.log" name="dir"> But I want exclude today's log from being processed. This isn't possible using cfdirectory's filter, so I figured: <cfset today = dateFormat(now(), "yyyymmdd"> <cfquery type="dbtype" name="dir"> SELECT * FROM dir WHERE name <> 're#today#.log' </cfquery> Seems to work. Should this type of QoQ, using the same query name to effectively delete rows, be safe in most circumstances? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:302128 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
