Thanks, That is what I'm currently doing, was hoping to break out the directory calls by file type (images/non-images) and then just refer to the recordset I needed.
Guess I'll have to leave it this way. Scott -----Original Message----- From: S.

Try putting this in a custom tag and using the ct to call your cfdirectory ... <cfdirectory action="list" directory="#getfulldir#" name="giflist" filter="*.gif" sort="name"> <cfset upper = listtoarray(ucase(valuelist(giflist.name)))> <cfset temp = QueryAddColumn(giflist,"upper",upper)> <cfdirectory action="list" directory="#getfulldir#" name="jpglist" filter="*.jpg" sort="name"> <cfset upper = listtoarray(ucase(valuelist(jpglist.name)))> <cfset temp = QueryAddColumn(jpglist,"upper",upper)> <cfquery name="imglist" dbtype="query"> select * from giflist union select * from jpglist order by upper </cfquery> The queryaddcolumn() is to allow for CF 5 case-sensitive sorting to sort the QofQ in a case-insensitive maner. Of course -- this code is long enough that you'd probably get more mileage out of a custom tag which would take in the directory name and your desired multi-extension filter list. The filter list would then be used to create an array of <cfdirectory> queries to union within the query of query, and that way you could specify as many and whatever type of filters you wanted, plus it's portable code, so you can drag it around wherever you want it. hth S.
