best place would be your Application.cfc. but you need to understand how Application.cfc (and Application.cfm) work. any coldfusion template looks in its own directory for Application.cfc. if it doesn't find one, it looks up one directory level. it keeps doing this until either it finds an Application.cfc (at which point it uses that file and stops looking) or reaches the root folder (at which point it simply stops looking and no Application.cfc is used). if your Application.cfc is in a directory that's at the same level as the template that you're running...that template won't have access to that Application.cfc. Not without creating an Application.cfc in the same directory and including the Application.cfc in the sibling directory (honestly, i'm new to Application.cfc, so i'm not sure if the including is a generally accepted good practice...might be better to just move the Application.cfc up one level so both directories can access it). -- Charlie Griefer ================================================ "...All the world shall be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you.
