Interesting... using cf to modify cf files from a programming point of view.
If you're not talking about gb of files, I'd use an app designed for the job. Despite my confidence in my own programming, somehow I don't think I'd ever write a script to open every cf file, do a search and replace, then write the file back. http://www.abacre.com/afr/ I used this program once years ago when upgrading an eight-year old collection of websites... literally a thousand plain html pages from ten interlinked interrelated sites, all referring to files and locations and urls that needed to be changed. I stood with my toes up against this giant wall stretching up as high as the sun, from horizon to horizon and thought there's no way in hell I'm doing this by hand. I was able to do some pretty amazing s/r tricks with this app, one of which I set to run while I went to lunch. I did probably a months worth of work in an afternoon because of that app. Pretty much guaranteed my job security (it was my first week there). Back everything up first, y'hear?
