ODBC datasources are still supported (thre’s notion of an Excel Datasource specifically, even in 9, but it’s just one kind of ODBC datasource, which both verisons support).
What you may be hearing is that support for ODBC is different in 64-bit systems (and that’s not really new to CF10). Are you moving from a 32-bit to a 64-bit machine? It’s just that ODBC support doesn’t work as easily as before, but it can be made to work. For more, you can find many who have written on how to get it to work: http://blogs.coldfusion.com/post.cfm/coldfusion-10-64bit-and-msaccess http://coldfusionbeyond.com/post.cfm/32-bit-odbc-fun-in-64-bit-windows http://www.coldfusionmuse.com/index.cfm/2010/12/31/Access.on.64bit.ColdFusion Let us know if that helps. /charlie From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:cfaussie@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Brian Knott Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2015 7:24 PM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: *****SPAM***** [cfaussie] CF11 and Excel Hello All.
