Given that, what would you suggest? The situation is that I'm faced with 
an access database whose name will change based on user feedback.  I 
suppose I could use the many CF_Datasource options to create and modify 
ODBC Datasources on the fly, however that seems like quite a bit to do, 
and does ColdFusion MX support Dynamic datasources in any way?  

Also for extra credit we'd have to make this solution work in ColdFusion 
5.0 as well.  Today's challenge for the day, have fun!
