Why do you need to do this before you process it with CFFILE? All that happens when you use CFFILE ACTION="UPLOAD" is that CF writes the file to a specified location on the filesystem. The file has already been received by the web server, and stored in a temporary file location. So, write the file to the filesystem in one place, then move it somewhere else with a subsequent CFFILE if you really want to.
