You could keep a running tally of the folder's size as you go. Each time they add a file, get the file size and add it to the previous total. This doesn't help for existing files in your system, if there are any. You'd have to run a batch file to load the initial values, then the above suggestion would work. Did you check cflib? There might be a function for this, and Java probably has one too (you can do Java in CF). --------- This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
