CF doesn't handle object hierarchies very well, in my experience. You might try creating a variable in CF to reference each level of the hierarchy: <cfobject name="a" ...> <cfset mynestedobj = a.b> <cfset mynestedobj = c> However, that may not work either, I suppose, depending on where c comes from.
