Maybe that is :)...I just remeber reading it somewhere..I will openly admit to not using Bluedragon in production...yet. I am toying with CFeverywhere apps right now and I am still soaking up all the BD enhancements so maybe I forgot something...I just remembered reading the enahcnements the other day and thinking jeeze thats nice...no need to us the split UDF here. Its particularly nice when reading comma deliminated rows from a csv.....
