Or as they say in perl RTFM :-) Even as an expert in CF you can still gain new information by reading the docs every so often.

Can you set a template to run as a scheduled task, and set it to run daily?

RE: time in CF
Well, the function to return the current date and time is: Now(). You can use the DateFormat and TimeFormat to have it display the way you want. Example Code: DateFormat(Now()) Output: 27-Nov-00 Code: DateFormat(Now(), "d/m/") Output: 11/27/2000 Code: TimeFormat(Now()) Output: 03:29 PM Code: TimeFormat(Now(), "h:mm:ss t") Output: 3:29:57 P Hope that helps. If you check your CF Documentation for DateFormat and TimeFormat, you'll get a list of all of the available masks for formatting your output.

Current date and time? You can use the Now() function to get a date/time object with that.
