This will do it for you. Watch out for any unintended line breaks that
might make it into this msg.
Notice that its not necessary to use tickmarks on a text field. Use
cfsqltype=CF_SQL_LONGVARCHAR for memo fields. These sql types can be
used on Access, mySQL, Oracle and MS SQL without causing any trouble.
Haven't tested for a universal date type, yet.
<cfquery
DATASOURCE="#request.SiteDSN#">
UPDATE myFile
SET
myFile.myPath=<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR"
value=#form.myPath#>
WHERE
myFile.IDNUM=<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_NUMERIC"
value=#blahblah#>
</cfquery>

I see...OK...trying the <cfqueryparam now. Getting "?" inserted into my
database. Must be wrong syntax.
I'll keep trying.
