You probably already know this, but for the benefit of the original poster, this isn't entirely accurate. CF 5 has its own registry key where it stores information about the ODBC datasources that it's been configured to use - passwords, etc. So, to capture that information in its entirety, you need the CF keys and the ODBC.INI keys.

That's all stored in the Windows Registry, under HKLM\Software\Allaire\ColdFusion\CurrentVersion somewhere if I recall correctly. ODBC information is stored in the ODBC.INI key within the Registry.

RE: Stupid CF 5 Question
These aren't really part of CF 5 per se. Rather they are a part of the ODBC settings in windows. You can cause DSN's to show up in the datasources by using the ODBC control panel - and visa versa. Look in the registry for ODBC under local machine (not sure of the exact location). -Original Message- From: Kirt Dankmyer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2007 3:22 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Stupid CF 5 Question Okay, I've combed the Internet and the Macromedia site, and my Google-Fu has failed me.
