You should use CFHTTP.Header to see what you get back. > ENews-milan is the IIS Virtual Directory I created for this purpose. Did you make that directory writeable? IIS doesn't allow you to write, by default. You check the "write" checkbox within the "Home Directory" tab for a virtual server, and within whatever the default tab is (I think) for a virtual directory. > Nope, I haven't tried this as I'm not sure what WebDAV is.

The ideal solution would be to run CF as a user with the appropriate rights, but you've mentioned the resistance to that already. Nevertheless, this is what I'd recommend. You could do this with little effort, if you're willing to use an account within the local Administrators group; by default, the ACLs will already be set to allow Administrators and SYSTEM to access everything needed to run CF. If that's a non-starter, you could do all of the detail collection, etc, when you allow the user to upload the file to a local directory, then, whatever process you use to get the file to the remote share, you'd still have all of that information. You could use Windows Scripting and/or batch processing and the runas command to run a script as the appropriate user; that script could copy files from the local partition to the remote share.
