Dave,
Use CFHTTP to grab the datafile, then you have 2 options, write the
resulting variable (from the CFHTTP) to a file, or directly manipulate
that variable. The next step is to use CF_SOXML to get the XML. This
custom tag converts the data to a structure which you manipulate with
the standard struct functions.
hth,
