Datetime created? You could do a cfdirectory, and then a query of query on the results sorting the file names, or looping over them to parse out the "date" part.
It might make sense to store the location of the files, date they were created, and who created them etc in a table in your db, to keep better track of them. Then if a network hiccup keeps the file from being written, you still have a record in the table to account for... ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Ian Skinner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 10:59 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Find last file. I have an app that writes out a file that is named with consecutive numbers, i.e. file01, file02, file04. The numbers are actually based on the date the file is written. What I'm looking for is an easy way to find the last file written, the one with the highest integer appended to the file name. Can anybody help my muddled mind?
