In CF5 (and maybe CF 4.5?), one way is to use the undocumented
"CF_IsColdFusionDataSource" function:
<CFSET DSN = "MyDSN">
<CFIF CF_IsColdFusionDataSource(DSN)>
Valid DSN
<CFELSE>
Invalid DSN
</CFIF>

Subject: Best way to check if a datasource is valid
Hi
Could anyone tell me the best way to verify a datasource without access
to the registry?
Thanks
Kola
