I'm sorry, are you asking if you should use the variables scope in the CFC itself?
If so, I don't recommend it. using variables. anything makes that variable available to all of the other methods in the cfc and basically trashes the thread safeness of the cfc, that is if you are using the cfc in a persistent scope. If you are instantiating the cfc evertime you use it, then it's ok, but under load it can really start to take a performance hit if you are invoking on every hit to the page. -- Alan Rother Macromedia Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:232649 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
