Thanks for the help!  Here's my CFFILE function:

<cffile action          = "upload" 
        filefield               = "form.embarkFile" 
        destination     = "#application.physpath#data\" 
          nameconflict  = "overwrite"
        accept          = "text/plain" 
        attributes      = "Normal" />

The #application.physpath# is declared as 
#getdirectoryfrompath(expandpath('*.*'))# in the application.cfc.

The form.embarkFile is uploaded in the self-posting form.  So between the 
destination and fileField, the CFFILE should be okay... right?

Thanks for the help!!  I really appreciate it!

Mike

What others said, the comma is part of the error message, not the value.

Can we see the full CFFILE?

You probably need a filename there, not a directory path.
