you could certainly just nuke the offending records from the returned
recordset
when the list is rather small and it is just an output issue of not seeing
certain files (and hey, you also typically do NOT want to see the "." and
".." record anyway, right?), you could just have a variable set like
<cfset IgnoredFilesList = (.,..,myexcel.xls) >
and then
when you loop over the file list do a <CFIF> on the IgnoredFiles List for
the current row's filename.
