Scott, Have you thought about using the POI stuff to read the Excel sheet? There's a lot of info on a CFC implementation at http://www.bennadel.com/blog/474-ColdFusion-Component-Wrapper-For-POI-To-Read-And-Write-Excel-Files.htm. True, that info then comes in as a struct but you could loop over the struct and create query without the spaces in the column names as you need for QOQ.
Just a thought... Howard On Fri, Apr 18, 2008 at 2:25 PM, Scott Councill < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks to all for comments. I should have been more detailed.
