Don't do that :-). As you've just discovered it creates a security weakness. I use variables.AppName="somename_" & variables.myDSNName & "_" & TimeFormat(CreateODBCTime(Now()),"HHmmss"); The above is part of an installer that writes an /Application.cfm to disk as part of the install routine. I've also used UUIDs for this, but for the most part just appending the date and time to your application name is sufficient. I have my own servers but still I do a datasource similarly. somename (not necessarily the url) & date+time. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:204067 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
