RE: Loss of CLIENT variables due to empty quotes in an HTML tag?
I threw this explanation at my coworkers and they both in unison reminded me that this problem goes away as soon as we remove some empty qotes in 4 tags in the page in question. If we put even a bogus filename into the quotes, everything works fine. Remove the filename from the image tag leaving empty quotes, and refresh the screen, and that client variable is gone. -Kev -Original Message- From: Smith, Matthew P -CONT(DYN) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 26, 2003 4:27 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Loss of CLIENT variables due to empty quotes in an HTML tag?

RE: Loss of CLIENT variables due to empty quotes in an HTML tag?
Well, I'm using comes of these variables to maintain state...I'm timestamping each pageview with CLIENT.lastAccess, and testing to see how long it's been since the last lastAccess. If it's more than 30 minutes, then I delete CLIENT.isAuthenticated, and the user will then need to log in again. In this case, though CLIENT.lastAccess just disappears, but CLIENT.isAuthenticated stays. The logoout process deletes the isAuthenticated variable, but I've cfaborted before the deletion of the client variables, and lastAccess is gone, but isAuthenticated is still there. I'm not deleting lastAccess anywhere but in the logout template. -Kev -Original Message- From: Jochem van Dieten [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 26, 2003 10:52 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Loss of CLIENT variables due to empty quotes in an HTML tag?

RE: cferror
CFML works on CFERROR templates in CF5, as well, as long as the type="Exception". I just built a whole web-based defect tracking system that uses the template specified in the CFERROR tage as the bug submission form, and I'm using all kinds of CFML on that page. What DOESN'T run is the application.cfm file, so you have to move anything you would have defined in the application.cfm page to the error template itself. Also keep in mind, as Dave Watts pointed out last week in a similar thread (and saved me from more concussions from beating my head against a wall) that ANY error in the error template causes CF to default back to the default error handler template. So...it's a good idea to limit the CFML you use on the error template, but if you have to, test and test and test it. It's gotta be perfect or you'll be seeing the default all the time. -Kevin -Original Message- From: Thomas Chiverton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2003 12:17 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: cferror On Wednesday 12 Feb 2003 12:47 pm, Craig Dudley wrote: > The template specified in CANNOT run cfml, any cfml at all, > not even a cfif.

CFERROR issues...
Hi all- I'm implementing a home-grown defect tracking system for a project I'm working which will be going into beta soon. The whole idea is to create a site-wide error handling routine which displays a form for submitting bug info on any error occurrence. Basically, anytime any error occurs, the form displays, along with a display of the error info that I want to be visible to the beta tester, and I'm WDDXing up the cferror structure and sending it along with the form variables to be inserted into the defect database. Everything was working nicely, using until I threw a DB error. Missing templates, CFML syntax, etc. all worked fine. I tried changing my datasource name in my code to throw a datasource error, and the default CF error page showed up instead of my form. I've messed with this for quite a while, removing the exception attribute, which I've been told you need and been told you don't need. I really need to do some CFML on my error page, or else I would just use the REQUEST type on the CFERROR tag. I'm a little confused as to why the EXCEPTION type won't trap a DB error. Anyone have an explanation? Am I doing something wrong, or does CFERROR just not trap DB errors in general? -Kev ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
RE: Load Balancing: Disk Options?
What about mapping two different drives from all three servers, and having your CF solution write the files to both mapped drives? -Original Message- From: Ben Koshy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, January 26, 2003 3:55 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Load Balancing: Disk Options? Hey Guys, Just wondering if you can shed some advice on a couple load balancing issues. We're moving to a 3 Server Cluster running Cold Fusion 5.0 using a Foundry Server Iron XL. We've got the Load Balancing Part down and it works great. However, now we turn our attention to the Cold Fusion Server...because the site receives a lot of "files", we need some way of consolodating the upload directory or directories and still maintain redundancy. Also it would be nice having to update Cold Fusion files on one server/one place as well. We're using the Windows Platform so options like: A) Map a Drive to A Common Directory/Drive on Another Computer B) Network Attached Storage C) File Replication / Synchronization between Servers. Anyone have recommendations? Remember we want to maintain redundancy so mapping a drive to a single machine seems to be out. Another way would be to go NAS, but are there any cheap redundant NAS clustering solutions out there? File Replication sounds promising but I'm worried about replication lag and stuff... Sincerely, Ben. ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.

Max Length to form field containing a WDDX packet?
Hey all- I've a large WDDX packet containing a complex structure that I need to pass from one page to another, but I'm getting a "not well formed" error after passing the packet to an action page and trying to unpack it. Anyone know what the maxlength of a form variable is? I think the WDDX packet is about 110,000 characters.

Javascript woes...
Hi all- I know that everyone steals their Javascripts from like one guy somewhere on the Internet (he's a busy guy, that Javascript programmer) so I'm wondering if he's on the list. I have this form that I need to be able to type in a text box, and have the form submit onkeyup, but when the form submits to itself, the cursor is placed in the text box at the end of the text already in it (a cfparam'd FORM field.) Basically I built a quick 'n' dirty narrow-down search populating a multi-select box from a CF query-of-queries with the parent query cached. Makes for a nice quick ND search. I've tried every javascript and custom tag version of an ND search I can find, but haven't found anything that does just what I want. What I've written works, but I have to keep selecting the text field each time the page loads, or at best can have the whole text selected or the cursor placed in the first position. I'd like to be able to place it AFTER the last character, if that's possible. I want to say that it's GOT to be possible, but Javascript and I only work together out of need. :) Anyone know how to do this? Alternatively, does anyone have a good CF narrow-down search which uses a LIKE %#variable#% where criteria to elminate all records that don't have the search criteria in them, and populate a multi-select box with the results?

Re: SSL
I recently obtained a Thawte cert for a client, and they were FAST. I contacted them by phone after submitting the request and the info aboutthe company. I didn't have the company's articles of incorporation or some other doc that was required...I forget which. While I was on the phone, the rep I was talking to went to the D&B site, found the company's entry, verified theinfo in the request, and two days later the info was double verified (it goes through two people for a check & balance). The next day I had the cert. It took a total of about 6 days, including a Saturday and Sunday. Not all requests will be this fast, most likely, but they were very helpful and responsive. I wouldn't be surprised at a price increase, though...they've got a lot of breathing room to keep the price down below their parent company (Verisign). Still not sure why they haven't just absorbed Thatwe and kept just one cert service. -Kev - Original Message - From: "Jim McAtee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 2:42 PM Subject: Re: SSL > Thawte recently announced a substantial price increase, although it's not yet > reflected on their web site.

Re: SSL
You can get them from Thawte...not a lot cheaper, but they lump in various services with their package in order to make it "worth it". 128 bit certs are awfully expensive. It's a shame, really...for small merchants who just want a simple e-commerce site, $1000 a year is a lot of money to spend up front. And when you tell them that they can get a 40 bit cert still for the lesser amount, they worry that they won't be well enough protected. -Kev - Original Message - From: "Chad Gray" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 1:28 PM Subject: OT: SSL > Is Verisign the only company you buy a 128bit certificate from? $900 > per year, per site seems a bit steep. > > > __ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists

Re: Bulk email servers...
I absolutely respect your thoughts on this topic, Ryan. There are many lists over 1,000,000 emails on the Internet. I previously worked for eDiets.com, whose opt-in email list is over 15,000,000 names as of about 4 months ago. I'm sure it's significantly larger than that by now. The company I currently work for has assumed a defunct company's opt-in email list through completely legitimate means, and is creating an opt-in mailing to continue to provide similar service to the previous members. We expect a LARGE number of people to remain opted-in, as this company's service is superior to the previous provider, and so the powers that be here wish to find a solution which will handle the volume of member-emails we may need to deal with in the next 12-24 months. While you do not know me, a number of people on the list do, and I assure you that I am an ethical, responsible developer who would not be party to spamming. If I felt that this company was doing anything inappropriate, I wouldn't be working for them. All that aside, I'm glad to see that you feel the obligation to question these practices. The company's current opt-in email list for member newsletters is somewhere around 195,000 right now. With the addition of the new list, that number will likely increased dramatically, and we just want to be prepared for it.

Bulk email servers...
Hi all- Just wanted to see if I could get some testimonials for bulk email servers. I'm looking for something that won't spit out its own skull when trying to send out a few million emails overnight, and hopefully something with decent list scrubbing capabilities. Thoughts, comments, suggestions? We're not looking to outsource the mailserver functions at all. We're looking to set up a dedicated email server to handle this stuff. Mostly newsletter stuff.

RE: Keeping track of logged-in users...
The session DOES expire, but transparently to the system. FOr purposes of this site, a session is expired if its lastAccess variable is older than 20 minutes ago. Basically I'm doing a check in the application.cfm file to see if this is the case, and if it is, then it deletes a couple of client variables, and redirects the user to the login page.

RE: Keeping track of logged-in users...
Thanks for the suggestions, all. I checked the article in CFDJ, and it looked like it might cover what I was looking for, but DOH! I don't have a current subscription. I've been meaning to re-up, but haven't gotten around to it, and the article teaser is available, but the article itselsf is only available to members. :( Ah well... If anyone with a subscription can summarize for me what the author did to accomplish this task, I'd be mighty grateful. I wish I could use the Application variable or even a login-triggered db field increment, but unfortunately, as others pointed out, there's nothing to trigger the decrement when someone times out. :( Unless someone knows how to query the client DB based on an application name and a client variable name, then I think I'm going to have to keep the user table updated with the most recent lastAccess. It'll do, I think, I was just hoping for a solution that could be accomplished without the extra update on every application.cfm execution. Thanks again...

Keeping track of logged-in users...
Hi all- Got a "best practices" question for you. I've got a client site which uses client variables to track users' sessions for auto-logout. When a user logs on, a CLIENT.lastAccess variable is set to now(). In the application.cfm, a check is run to see if CLIENT.lastAccess is defined and if it's more recent than 20 minutes. If it is, then CLIENT.lastAccess is set to now() again, and processing continues. As long as the client hits a page before the 20 minute time limit runs out, works great. To log the user out, I delete certain client variables, especially lastAccess. Now my dimlemma. The client decided that he wants to track how many users are "logged on" (how many have accessed a page in the last 20 minutes and haven't yet been logged off. The only way I can see to do this is to ALSO write now() into a lastAccess field in the member database on each hit right after writing the client variable, so that the home page, which is supposed to display the number of users logged in, can run a query on members with a lastAccess field with a time less than 20 minutes ago. This just seems like a lot of DB access (one write when setting the CLIENT variable, and another when updating the member table), but I'm wondering if anyone has experience doing something like this, and whether that one extra update on each page hit will hurt that much. Assume a few thousand members hitting the site daily, spread out, most likely, but probably surfing around a fair bit (lots of articles, and a message board). Doing the CLIENT variable update seems to impact the site not at all, but I've not tested under really heavy load. Does anyone have a more elegant way of doing this, like parsing the Client DB for the CLIENT.lastAccess variable and getting a count of the ones with a value less than 20 minutes ago. Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks...

RE: Paypal Subscriptions...
Hmmm...Still researching recurring-fee processing for this client, and it looks like PayFlow isn't any better than other getways from a recurring-fee standpoint. They're just a gateway. FYI...anyone who's interested, Verisign will be offering recurring-fee processing (databasing credit cards so you don't have to) later this year, according to the person I spoke with. It looks like databasing the credit cards is going to be necessary and building the recurring-fee system (no biggie there) myself. New question...does anyone have experience they can lend with regards to encryption solutions? I'm not comfortable with just using CF's encryption to encrypt that database... :) What solutions have you all used?

Hi all- I've a customer who is likely going to go with Paypal for recurring subscriptions (thanks to all who gave suggestions for solutions), which upon investigation looks like a pretty robust service, and about the cheapest I've found. I was wondering if any of you have implemented it, and whether or not you've used their IPN (Instant Payment Notification) stuff. It looks like you need to implement a Perl script on the server, which I'm trying to avoid, because I've never configured ActivePerl on a Win2K box (properly) before. Anyone know if there are alternatives? Anyone have any thoughts or comments on using this service? Good or bad, all advice is welcome. Thanks...

RE: OT: Subscription / Invoicing Solution
Actually, it is a CF-related issue, because I'm looking for a decent solution for handling recurring payments on a CF-based community site. Problem is, I don't want to warehouse credit cards for recurring subscription fees. I'd prefer to leave that to the people who specialize in that type of security for CC databases.

iBill PIN code payment integration...
Hi all- I'm looking for someone with experience in implementing iBill's PINcode payment system using CF. The info I've found so far says that you need to use a CGI program to retrieve the PIN code from your PIN code file. Has anyone built a CF version to read the file and return the next PIN? I'd like to stay away from CGI if possible, but more importantly, I'd like to find someone who can give me some pointers on implementing the system in general.

RE: pro v.s. enterprise
Enterprise allows full Advanced Security, and the enablement of Security Sandboxes. Boxes allow you to partition off certain services and areas of the CF server to specific users or security contexts. This is great for IPS or companies which allow multiple developers to RDS into a machine, but don't want the developers to access each other's resources.

RE: TOP 3 not working, again
You should use ORDER BY to assure that you're getting the top three. Because you enter new records does not make those records "top" records. Try ordering by your priary key (descending) if it's an identity element, or timestamp the insert and order on that (descending).

RE: Multiple sites...
Best thing to do in that situation is use relative urls (../includes/blah.cfm) in your CFINCLUDEs. That way, as long as your directory structure stays the same, your site should work perfectly when you just copy it over. Another thing you can do is set a variable in your application.cfm, like: Then, in the pages where you access this directory, do it using #imageDir#. When you move the site, just change the once instance of each path defined like this, and voila. This method has problems, though, because if you're on a shared server, you have to figure out what those absolute paths are, by using some getBaseTemplatePath() functions.

RE: Allaire Partner upgrades...
Well, I was told that Macromedia was going to honor Allaire partnerships through the end of the year's subscription, so whenever your current year subscription ends, you'd have to renew as a Macromedia partner, but until that year is up, all Allaire products that fell under the developmen`t program (Homesite, CF Server, Studio, JRun, etc) should be upgraded for you as part of agreement you made with Allaire.

RE: Hi
While you make good points, here's one that should be considered... I've not seen this person's name on the list much before, but then I haven't been looking for it. My point is, that everyone is a newbie at some point. Someone who steps into the programming arena from some other walk of life might now know the pitfalls to avoid. I know someone who was hired by a company to be their Microsoft Excel guru...she's very good with this stuff. But somewhere along the way she started messing with ColdFusion, and now is well along the way to being a very competent CF developer. But her scope of technologies is far more liited than, say yours or mine, because she's not been exposed to it. Could be she knows enough about viruses to protect herself against it, but then it could be she relies on an IT department that's lazy, and isn't protecting their systems as well as they could, and she doesn't realize it. She sends mail to the list and zaps a few machines with a virus she's caught, and it's through no fault of her own. So, while it does get annoying to see problems like this, there are extenuating circumstances sometimes. I think we should just all be a bit more tolerant of others' mistakes and help them to fix the problem when arise. We're all friends here (more or less) and the whole idea of this community is to help one another. If the virus was spread maliciously, I'd be singing a different tune, but there's no evidence of that, so I say let it be and protect yourself properly. Just my #dollarFormat(0.02)# worth.

But if you use the RDS feature of Studio, or the debugger, or the validator, it leaks like a sieve, on all versions of the OS. I've been begging Allaire for a fix for this since 4.5 first hit, without luck. So I reverted to Studio 4.0. It still crashes, but not as often, and usually only if I have a Microsoft application open as well. This is my absolute biggest gripe with any Allaire product. ~~ Your ad could be here.

Inserting single quotes into SQL Server...
Hi all- I've beaten this problem before, but even looking at code that seems to work fine from previous projects, I can't see what I'm doing wrong. I want to insert a string into a record in a SQL Server 2000 DB. The string contains a customer's name. If the customer's name contains an apostrophe, the insert dies. It works fine in another app, but I can't see what I'm doing differently. I'm not escaping anything or doing anything special, from what I can see. Anyone have any standard ways of inserting strings into SQL which may or may not contain single quotes?

Turbolink/United Stationers...
Hello all- Got one from way out in left field. Anyone ever dealt with parsing export files from a company called United Stationers? They have a proprietary conduit for transmitting invoices from to and from vendors. My client's client uses United Stationers for office supplies, and needs me to build an app which takes order info from an AbleCommerce DB, match it up with the export file from US' Turbolink product to get accurate current pricing (the prices change without notice from time to time) and then export the records to a text file importable by Quickbooks. Fun fun. I've got the export to Quickbooks pretty much down, but US tech support is almost non-existent, and their docs are horrible. The sample export file that I managed to get tells me nothing of what I need to parse out, so I'm beating my head against a wall here. To top it off, my client is under major pressure to have this thing done yesterday, so I am too. Any help would be appreciated.

RE: (Admin) Machine move
Tony- Excellent idea! I wish I'd thought of that...I just had a client move servers. But I've got another one happening next week. I'm going to try this. One issue...the client is using Dotster.com for DNS service. Can you set the TTL for those DNS records through Dotster, or do I have to have them request this through Dotster?

ColdFusion Studio RC...
Is the CF 5 Studio RC still available for download? I meant to grab it during beta, and didn't get around to it. I've downloaded the upgrade files for 4.5 to access CF5 features, but ever since then my Studio 4.5 has been really flaky. If I double click on a folder by accident, the contents don't show up in the file window, and then I have to click on another folder and then click back to the folder I was interested in in the first place, and once in a while when I do that, even, when I try to open a file in the folder, I get an error message saying that the file can't be found in the path. Weird thing is, the path displayed is the path for the folder I clicked to to change focus and click back. Also, last night Studio crashed on me, and after I closed down and started back up, I found that one of the files that were open when it crashed got overwritten by another file that I had open. Not good...I have a backup so I'm ok there, but I see a lot of potential for problems with the bug in Studio's file handling. I've never encountered these problems before I installed those Studio upgrade files. Anyone else seen anything like this? I think I saw a message about Studio crashing and leaving behind some 0-length files...

RE: Terrorism
Yup...disgusting. The US has some seriously negative sentiment towards it abroad. I was at a client's office earlier, two employees of which are military. One of them was on the phone with a woman whose husband works at the Pentagon (also military) who said that supposedly the plane downed in Pittsburgh was shot down by US forces. THAT'S scary...could be just rumor, but based on the source, I think not. There's been nothing said on the news yet, but I did hear a few minutes ago Peter Jennings say that it's suspected that that plane was targetting the White House. This truly is a modern day Pearl Harbor. God rest the souls of the victims of the heinous act.

RE: inserting e-mail addresses, CFIF isdefined ...
Well, first of all, if email isn't defined, your CFMAIL tag will blow up. Also, your from attribute is messy. You need to put some quotes around all that, or it'll never work.

RE: Mailing List Manager
I'm ruinning iMS, and I can tell you that you do, in fact, have to run iMS on a CF machine. It's a CF-based application. I'm running it now, and I love it. Not sure about running on a single user license...that sounds like it'd work fine, but CF Express? Hmmm...Definitely ask Howie about that one. Docs are great, it DOES have black hole capabilities, and as for mailing list stuff, there isn't anything built in, but there is a package (not free) out there that extends the server's capabilities to include mailing list managment. Also, a while back Howie had sent me some beta code for list serve functionailty for what would have been FusionMail/2, which never shipped. He might still have that code, which should be a good basis to build your own list server code. Also, I haven't looked at it yet, but there's a listServ app in the Developers' Exchange at Allaire.com. It might be something that could be easily modified to work with iMS. Oh...and so far, Howie's always been really responsive with regards to tech support issues. That's another reason why I like the software.

ColdFusion Diagnostic tools?
I've a prospective client who is having some problems with their ColdFusion server, their Windows/IIS server, or a CF App...they're not sure which. I'll be speaking to them tomorrow to get more info, but I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on diagnostic tools for ColdFusion server, besides the obvious server logs and such. I've never really used any external diag tools for troubleshooting CF Server, so I thought I'd see what others use. -Kev > -Original Message- > From: Tilbrook, Peter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 10:28 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: custom make Page not found > > > Either setup your web servers custom error templates or use the Missing > Template/Site-Wide Error handling of the CF Administrator (under > Server/Settings - at least under CF5). > > Peter Tilbrook > ColdFusion Applications Developer > Australia New Zealand Food Authority > Boeing House > 55 Blackall Street > BARTON ACT 2600 > Ph: +61-2-6271 2256 > Fax: +61-2-6271 2278 > > http://www.anzfa.gov.au > > -Original Message- > From: Mak Wing Lok [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, 30 August 2001 12:09 > To: CF-Talk > Subject: OT: custom make Page not found > > > hi all, > > can anyone tell me how can i redirect the user to a custom template when > a > page they requested cannot be found.

I've had a few of my CFUG members (I'm the President of the South Florida CFUG) attend Adam's class, and they've raved about it at my meetings. I've also had Adam Churvis, a close friend of mine, down here to South Florida for a couple of different presentations and he ran a one-day DB Design for CF seminar twice for us as well. I can speak from experience that any training you get from Adam is worth every penny you pay for it.

RE: Recordcount/Query Strangeness..
Ummm...there's no loop in this code. On line 6 you're setting the variable citysearch equal to something, and therefore you're blowing away the resultset, because it's also called citysearch. I'm pretty sure that you can't have a VARIABLES scope variable and a query resultset that use the same name, because it confuses CF Server. But it might work if you specify the VARIABLES. scope to differentiate the two.

Re: CF Shopping Cart Solution?
Hi Tim- I have a client who was going to use EZ-Cart for a solution, and after putting together a deal with them for a large number of licenses, they agreed that my client would pay 1/2 up front, and the other 1/2 upon successfully launching their first site using EZ-Cart. My client's credit card was subsequently charged for the entire amount, and despite sending them copies of the email agreements on the terms, they refused to issue a credit, and my client has issued a chargeback through his credit card company. The guys who make EZ Cart have been a HUGE pain to deal with, completely unethical, in my opinion, and to boot, their code isn't that good. It's got a lot of "patchwork" qualities, that makes it evident that it was developed by a number of people with very different styles, and they do some REALLY bizarre stuff with their licensing code, which slows down the executiong of literally every template in the app. I'd steer clear unless you want to buy a license for a large set of source code to use as a base to develop from, and even then, there are probably better options. -Kevin - Original Message - From: "Hawkins, Tim" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2001 4:33 PM Subject: CF Shopping Cart Solution? > > Does anyone have experience with CF EZ CART or other CF > based Shopping Cart software?

RE: Help needed with ODBC Excel datasource problems...
Ok...the link table didn't work. The values still come up as numbers, and
Access won't allow me to change the values. Philip's solution of creating a
new field is likely not feasible with my client, as he'll have toi convince
all customers who create these spreadsheets to make this change, and input
only in the correct field.
However...I did an IMPORT in Access, and that imported perfectly. Does
anyone know of a script or a custom tag that will automate the importing of
an external Excel spreadsheet into an Excel database?

The Excel ODBC driver is notoriously bad - even using a Link table produces
the same problem
Once it decides on a field type, then it forces it into that mode, and the
"other" type (text/numeric) are ignored
The only way to force it is to format a row into text, but not used the Cell
Format function in Excel as that's only visual
Make a cell beside the one with data with
=Mid("'"&D2,2,Len(D2))
Where D2 is the cell to the left
This will FORCE it into text mode... it's what I had to do to get one of our
clients sheets working - they now have to add that every time they upload

Help needed with ODBC Excel datasource problems...
Hi all-
Got a tricky one for ya. I have an Excel datasource that I need to import
into an Access DB. I've been to www.cfcomet.com (excellent site, by the
way...definitely visit for any issues with accessing MS Office Objects
through CF) which gave me a start, but I've run into a problem I can't find
addressed anywhere.
When creating an ODBC datasource for Excel, you define how many rows to scan
to allow CF to determine what the datatype of each field is. If you have
column headings in your spreadsheet, then they are automatically used as
field names when imported. I have set the number of rows to scan to 1,
hoping to force the ODBC driver to use the column headings as the
determining factor for data type determinination, and that didn't work. I
figured maybe it was skipping the first row and reading the second, so I
added "Do not alter this text" in every field in row two, again hoping to
force the datatypes to strings.
Didn't work. :( I have one particular field which, in some cases:
a) is blank,
b) has a number in it, or
c) has multiple numbers, separated by spaces (ie. 3 5 2)
For whatever reason, CF is importing this field as a number, converting the
3 to 3.0, and dropping the rest of the field. This has me stymied, because
if I can't import this spreadsheet properly, then the project is going to
die very quickly. Any ideas on how to force the datatype of the fields
being imported to strings? Is there some SQL snytax that can define in the
SELECT statement something like SELECT {fieldname} AS STRING FROM "Sheet1$"?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks...
