Ian, It looks like you're not joining your thread back to the main request's thread.
You can use cfthread to make a throw-away thread, like you're doing in your example, but if you want to use anything created in that spun-off thread, your thread either has to write to a shared scope, like application.* or session.*, or it has to join back to the main thread. http://www.cfquickdocs.com/cf8/#cfthread I think you may be looking for something like: <cfloop query="tables"> <cfthread action="join" name="thd_#table_name#" /> </cfloop> On Wed, Apr 30, 2008 at 8:48 AM, Ian Skinner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What am I not getting here. > > I am attempting to use <cfthread...> to asynchronously query a database > multiple times.
