I'm not sure this is a job for CF. How about importing the files as tables into Access, then appending them all into one big table, with a new field that tracks which rows come from which file, and then sorting them by IP or what have you so that all the same IPs are together and you can idenfity the files? -----Original Message----- From: W Luke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 20, 2000 8:58 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Using CFFILE to search [CF-Talk] Hi, I've been given a nasty job to do, that of reading through 500 files to find similarities. Now I could do this manually, but I'm too lazy and don't have time either! I've only used CFFILE to append, write and output entire contents of files - now I need to read through each file (which is of the same format..zone files - this is Bind again guys), find out what IP address it's sat on, so that I can see which can have the same zone files etc. So for those not familiar with Bind I need to read through each file, find something at a given point (don't wanna output it all), and store it in a DB for later. Any ideas?
