Using cf to loop and build the text file just wont work, it takes forever and often crashes. Someone mentioned a way todo it with php, by invoking a function that converts the record set in ram to a text file and then zips and send back. But we are stuck doing it on box with mx 6.0. Looked at having sql generate the file, but trying to avoid mapping drives to move it around. Anyone got an clever ideas? gabe ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
