Don't we all on Friday But may I suggest that you (and everybody else with this habit) never reply to another message and then change the subject to ask a question? If you do that the "References" header still references the message in the other thread, and that means sorting mechanisms in email clients get messed up. > Does anyone know if running Access is necessary on a Cold Fusion server?

What you need is up to your apps. Most apps connect to a database in some way or another. If that database is Access and you want to connect through ODBC you need the ODBC drivers (get the latest MDAC from Microsoft). If that database is Access and you want to connect through OLE DB you need an OLE DB provider (which can probably be obtained through Microsoft). If that database is Access and for some reason that is beyond my comprehension you want to connect through cfobject and the access.application object you do need Access installed. Most setups using Access connect through ODBC (it is the no brains default) and if you require any other type of connection somebody has put a lot of work in that and would most certainly remember what is necessary for which reasons.
