Thank you very much. It worked I put the Cfset tags in the application page. If you have time, I was just wondering if you would be able to explain to me why my previous code did not work, should I change it even for the queries that it does work for?
Thanks again for your time. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Townend [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 06, 2002 9:50 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Using CfQuery tag to establish db connection How about if you connect something like <CFSET sConnectionString = "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};"> <CFSET sConnectionString = sConnectionString & "Dbq=c:\somepath\mydb.mdb;"> <CFSET sConnectionString = sConnectionString & "Uid=admin;Pwd="> <CFQUERY NAME="qryFoo" DBTYPE="dynamic" CONNECTSTRING="#sConnectionString#"> ... </CFQUERY> HTH -----Original Message----- From: Hirschman, Miriam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 6, 2002 14:32 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Using CfQuery tag to establish db connection No, I have not, but I am not sure how to do this. This is my query, it uses variables, but I pasted the real values for you.

Have you tried connecting with a connection string instead... -----Original Message----- From: Hirschman, Miriam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 6, 2002 14:21 To: CF-Talk Subject: Using CfQuery tag to establish db connection I posted this once, but did not receive an answer. I would appreciate any help. I am trying to do a cfquery without setting up a DSN on the CF Admin. I am using CF 5. I pasted the code that I am using below. It works fine in most instances however, when using a query that uses the CreateODBCDateTime I get an error: Malformed GUID. in query expression. I am using Access 97 and 2000. This query works fine when I set up the DSN in the Admin. This is my code: <CFQUERY NAME="qryGetUserName" DATASOURCE="#strConn#" providerdsn="#strConn#" dbtype="OLEDB" provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" username="Admin" password=""> Thank you ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
