We have noticed the same thing. We have an application where the user enters a job number and using CFDIRECTORY we retrieve all of the files in several directories that match a pattern using that job number. We then display a grid of record counts for the user to verify. Once verified the user can update our ERP database with counts so that the proper job instructions can be generated.
My suspicion is that CF is opening and closing the network connection several times during the CFDIRECTORY thus slowing down the function. Just my $.02 worth. ______________________________________________________ Bill Grover Supervisor MIS Phone: 301.424.3300 x3324 EU Services, Inc.
