Well, yes, that would work.
However, when answering the question originally, my intent was to answer the
question from a pragmatic standpoint. After all, with enough work, one can
do nearly anything from CF. However, if you use ADO, you won't have a query
object. You could take your ADO recordset and copy it into a CF query
object, and so on and so forth, but my take on the original question was
that the desired output was to use connection strings with CFQUERY.
