Hey Steve ok I think I understand and that's kind of what I was thinking, but I'm just not familiar enough with Verity yet. Are there any good resources for setting this up using spiders to collect the data?
Also another issue is that half the site will still continue to use .Net apps. I'm not sure if there is way to run .Net in ColdFusion, so for not we just simply open them in another window. This Site is somewhat of a mess of different languages and its time to clean it up.

Neal, I would recommend taking advantage of on of the Custom fields (Custom1,Custom2 etc) in Verity and including the required rank in that field. Then after you run the search, you can filter out results based on comparing the users "user rank" to that field. <blatant_plug> You could use easily extend my Searcher component (which is free but requires my free DataMgr component to work) to do that. The Searcher component encapsulates common search functionality and keeps track of what users search for and what they choose from their searches. That is, if you have a predelection for using CFCs. http://www.bryantwebconsulting.com/cfcs/ <blatant_plug> Hope that helps! Steve Steve Bryant.
