If you are building a massive string (without appending to a file) I would
suggest using the Java StringBuffer. It creates parts of a string and then
creates a full string once at the end... HUGE performance advantage over
traditional string concatenation:

<cfset jstrBuffer = CreateObject( "java", "java.lang.StringBuffer" ).Init()
/>

<cfloop query="qTest">
  <cfset jstrBuffer.Append( "this is row: " & qTest.CurrentRow ) />
</cfloop>

<cfoutput>
  #jstrBuffer.ToString()#
</cfoutput>

Subject: Export text

I need to do a simple download of 100,000 plus records out of SQL. I would
like the user to get prompted to save a .txt file They will be using recent
versions of IE. I've been playing around with CFHeader and CFContent. It
works OK if specify Application/msexcel. Does anyone have any code examples
dumping to a text file?
