Tim, Ben Forta wrote a very good custom tag call CF_EmbedFields. From the writeup on the Macromedia Exchange: CF_EmbedFields simplifies the process of creating multi-part HTML forms. A single call to this tag (without any attributes) embeds all passed form fields in the form as hidden fields. You can get it at the MM exchange, http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm#view=sn106&viewName=Exchange%20Search%20Details&loc=en_us&authorid=19588859&page=0&scrollPos=0&subcatid=0&snid=sn106&itemnumber=8&extid=1000001&catid=0 and for those who are wrap challenged: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/95 hth, larry -- Larry C.
