Re: DevCon 2002 info
Is it me, or do most of the topics covered at DevCon seem to be aimed at designers and not the CF world? A large percentage of the sessions seem to be focused highly on Flash, Dreamweaver and other Studio MX products. Or, perhaps it seems this way to me because I work at somewhere that has no plans to use any of the Flash integration features of MX or most of the other MX Studio products? Interested to hear anyone else's opinion on this.

Re: CFMX: help using jrun.security.NTAuth (repost)
I've been testing the files from that article also. I've not read the article from robrusher.com, so I'll have to go read that. I'm testing in a multiple domain environment, with a mix of NT4 and Active Directory domains. My test server is located in an NT4 domain. I've edited the files so that users can enter their domain along with their username/password. I then changed them to run the authenticateUser function, and if it returns a valid user, to then lookup the groups. Here's my results so far: 1. Authenticating users in the same NT4 domain as the server: I am able to authenticate and retrieve user groups. 2. Authenticating users in the active directory domain: I am able to authenticate but NOT retrieve user groups. At this point, I'm not sure if it's 1) a problem of the user being in a separate domain from the server or 2) authenticating against Active Directory or 3) something else entirely. (note: I'm also unsure what type of trust relationships exists between the domains) I'm going to continue testing, and would appreciate any information that anyone else has about this process.

Re: web directory reporting tool
Not sure of exactly what you need, but you can get a text file listing using windows built in tools. Open a dos command prompt (start->run->cmd) Use the following command: dir path /b /s > filename.txt where *path* is the starting point that you want for the files (for example, c:\temp) and *filename.txt* is the txt filename that you want the data stored in This will give you a file list of all of the files in the specified directory and all subdirectories (full path info - c:\temp\folder\filename.ext) . You can then import this file into excel and parse it.

Dreamweaver MX
HELP! I'm really trying to like DWMX, but I'm having a really hard time doing what should be simple tasks. If anyone can answer me on how to configure/change it so I can do the following, I'd appreciate it. 1. CSS: Is there any sort of CSS editor in Dreamweaver other than the style definition box I keep managing to pull up? Is there anything that even remotely has the functionality of TopStyle where you can browse options, even switch between what's supported in different browsers? Also, is there any way to get to a style editor from within a tag editor (from the stylesheets/accesiblity section of a tag)? 2. Tag shortcuts: How do I create keystroke shortcuts for individual tags? I was in the keyboard shortcuts dialog, but couldn't figure it out. In reading help, all I found was how to add or edit keystrokes for the existing shortcuts. 3. Tag properties: Is there a way to turn on different properties for tags and/or tag editors? For example, I want to be able to use ID, not just name from tag editors. 4. Extended searching: Is there a way to search all of the files in a folder, but not the subfolders? Is it possible to specify the filetypes to search in? Maybe it's just because it's Friday afternoon, but I'm frustrated.

Oracle CLOBS
OK, I'm posting this for a co-worker... He's trying to convert an existing Access DB to an Oracle/CF solution. He's having trouble inserting large amounts of data into Oracle. Here's his complaint: I need to use the CLOB because it can hold 4gb of data and the next largest one is a varchar which holds 4K. My data is sometimes over 100K. I can get the code to work as long as I don't have data > 4k after that it fails. I have tried a regular insert, I have tried an insert via stored procedure, I have tried an insert via stored procedure with cfstoredproc tag. Nothing works. Our production box is Win2K/CF4.5 Pro. We've tried/developed this on the single license version of CF that comes with studio 5. I've searched through the archives for some help from the list, and we've tried the following things: 1. We tried using "CF_SQL_CLOB" with the CFPROCPARAM tag, and get the "CF_SQL_CLOB" is not a known CFSQLTYPE error. When we use any other sqltype, we get some other error. 2. We've tried ODBC drivers, Native Drivers, we've enabled long text. Still nothing.

Re: Oracle Error
Have you checked the limitations on your firewall? We ran into a similar situation (with a similar network configuration), and we discovered that it was because our firewall (Raptor) only supported 30 concurrent Oracle connections at a time, which essentially made all of our DMZ CF/Oracle sites non-functional. To alleviate the situation, we used Connection Manager to set up the connections, and everything has been fine since. Debbie McDaniel -line.com> cc: Subject: Oracle Error 02/07/2002 09:57 AM Please respond to cf-talk Hi everyone, I keep getting these weird errors with Oracle 8i that of course are being blamed on ColdFusion. Here goes. Our webserver sits in the DMZ and our database server is inside the firewall. All traffic going from the webserver goes through the firewall to talk to the database. I seem to be able to access the database through coldfusion 90% of the time, but sometimes I will get an ORA-0 error or an ORA-12203:TNS:unable to connect to destination error, both of which result in massive errors in the application and the eventual rebooting of the machine. I am thinking it may be a network issue, but because coldfusion is new to this company they want to blame it. If I log in with sql+ (an oracle client) I can access the datasource w/o trouble, although cf can't even verify the datasource. This usually happens after several moderate hits to the datasource. We are running CF 4.5.2 with all the appropriate patches applied on a Compaq Windows 2000 machine with all the appropriate service packs applied to Win2K. Our database is Oracle 8i - anyone have some suggestions? Greatly appreciated!

Dynamic Fieldnames & database update
I am working on a dynamic form that allows me to update multiple records at once. We use the primary key from the table as a hidden field to identify the record, and append a unique number to all fields from each record via a counter. For example, the form would look something like this < input key#counter#> < input fieldname#counter#> < input fieldname#counter#> Problem is, when we go to update the database, how do we specify the formfields? I'd assumed that we would need to loop over our counter again, but I don't know how to make the dynamic fieldnames in the update.
