(Part 1...my reply is too long) Hey Dave,
The root of our differences here is that we're designing the application differently - it affects both the upload and the insert, and the same logic I used in my insert can (and, imho, should) be used in the upload portion. On a really low level, your design has a table that looks like this: tblProductImages ------------------------- ProductId ImageFileName1 ImageFileName2 ImageFileName3 If I understand correctly, you'd do this to handle the upload: <cffile action="upload" formfield="ImageFileName1"...> <cfset ImageFileName1 = cffile.serverFile> <!--- do it again ---> <cffile action="upload" formfield="ImageFileName2"...> <cfset ImageFileName1 = cffile.serverFile> <!--- do it...again ---> <cffile action="upload" formfield="ImageFileName3"...> <cfset ImageFileName3 = cffile.serverFile> And this for your insert: <cfquery...> INSERT INTO tblProductImages (ImageFileName1, ImageFileName2, ImageFileName3) VALUES (...) </cfquery> And if you needed all image file names: <cfquery name...> SELECT ImageFileName1, ImageFileName2, ImageFileName3 FROM tblProductImages WHERE productId = .... </cfquery> What Scott means by this being a "static" design is that the number of images per product supported by your application is a static value, unable to be changed without changing code. Why trap yourself like this? One of the reasons relational databases _exist_ is to avoid situations like this.
