Hello All,

Thanks to many through CF-Talk and some CF buddies, I resolved the problem I
still have some tweaking to do but the following does display PDF files.
Thanks to all who responded. 

<CFIF FileExists(ExpandPath("./Images/#Trim(Session.Client_ID)##Trim(Session
Insured_ID)#2.pdf"))>
 <CFOutPut>
  <a href="/Images/#Trim(Session.Client_ID)##Trim(Session.Insured_ID)#1.pdf
><font size="2" face="Arial"><strong>"View Page 1 of 2
</strong></font></a><img src="pdfdoc.jpg" width="117" height="79" border="0"
alt="">
  <a href="/Images/#Trim(Session.Client_ID)##Trim(Session.Insured_ID)#2.pdf
><font size="2" face="Arial"><strong>"View Page 2 of 2
</strong></font></a><img src="pdfdoc.jpg" width="117" height="79" border="0"
alt="">
 </cfoutput>
<CFELSE>
 <CFOutPut>
  <a href="/Images/#Trim(Session.Client_ID)##Trim(Session.Insured_ID)#1.pdf
><font size="2" face="Arial"><strong>"View Page 1 of 1
</strong></font></a><img src="pdfdoc.jpg" width="117" height="79" border="0"
alt="">
 </CFOutPut>
</CFIF>

As an addendum to this, if you want to spend time online learning HTML,
CSS and other technologies, www.w3schools.com has some GREAT basic
tutorials
