You might want to do this: Create a simple structure like, "Request.Constants" or some other scope just to remind people not to change them. Other scopes might include Application (if app specific constant) or Server (if not clustered or server specific).

Thanks, I thought of new this but wasn't sure if CF 5.0 had something as I haven't really got stuck into its new features yet!! -----Original Message----- From: Jeffry Houser [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, 25 November 2001 1:24 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Is this possible!! In essence, you are looking for a constant. No, there is not. Just set up the variable in the Application.cfm and don't ever change it's value. If you're working with other developers... I don't believe there is anything you can do to force them not to change the value other than telling them.
