It's a shame your not sensible or grownup then with comments like that

It can't, it's not supposed to, nor did I say it would.

The purpose of expandpath() is to work out the path of the currently
executing file.
So you can do.

<cffile action="UPLOAD" filefield="file"
destination="#expandpath('.\')#myfile.gif" nameconflict="ERROR">

Instead of

<cffile action="UPLOAD" filefield="file"
destination="#myhardcodedvariable#myfile.gif" nameconflict="ERROR">

You can find more info on the Expandpath() function a
