I have never used cfexecute before and could use a few pointers
before I suffer early hair loss.

Here is what I am attempting to do.

I would like to run Access from the command line opening 
a database with a linked table in it that will be copied to another
datasource using an autoexec macro which has a copy object
call as it's action.

The reason I am doing this is my financial package (MAS90) uses
illegal characters in its database table naming that Access can handle,
but not CF. So I am attempting to create a new table everytime I open
the test.mdb. It works fine in windows 2000, but not in a CF template
using the following parameters. This is an intranet app.

<cfexecute name = "C:\program files\microsoft office\office\msaccess.exe"
  arguments = "c:\inetpub\databases\test.mdb" 
  timeout = "100">
</cfexecute>

If anyone can show me the correct method to accomplish my task
I would greatly appreciate it.

Terry
