What if you map the drive to a drive letter. Example: H: = \\servername\filefolder\
then in CFCONTENT use: H:\whatever_you_need >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/26/03 08:18AM >>> Hi Philip, Thanks for your time. But even the files uploaded hours ago still the same. It must be something to do with the path to the server. I believe when talking about the directory not on the same server, there is a difference between pathes used in <CFFILE> and the <CFcontent> , though they point to the same place. Just don't know what it is. I can use "\\servername\uploadfold\" in <CFFILE> to upload files to another server, but cannot use the same path to view it with <CFcontent>. Then tried to use "http://....."; still not working. Thanks again.

What you've got to remember is that with NT, it doesn't write the file immediately as soon as it's uploaded, the file system can take a fraction of a second to finish writing it If you're writing across a network, then it might take a fraction longer For a test, maybe use CF_WAIT to stall for while, say a second Would that work? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| 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 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
