A couple of things, you chould read the whole thing into memory and have a
list of lists
<cffile action=read variable="MyRSet">
<cfset newline = Chr(13) & Chr(10) >
<cfloop list="MyRSet" delimiters="#newline#" index= "CurrentLine">
<cfloop list="CurrentLine" delimiters="," index="column">
#column#
</cfloop>
<br>
</cfloop>
but that mean that the whole file is read into memory .Have a look at
cfx_readline @ www.Intrafoundation.com , it might be handy.
There are other ways , depends on a whole load of things ...
