>> like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic

Lol, Hilarious analogy, is it really -THAT- bad having them on the same box?
Thanks for the tips and link on the stored proc stuff, I'll give that a
thorough run through this afternoon and see what I can get working.

I also like Gert Franz's concepts on where the details are stored.

Thanks guys,

Rob

Deciding whether to store passwords in the CF Administrator vs CFQUERY tags
when you're running the database server on the same machine is like
rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. I just want you to be aware of that.

You will have to explicitly grant permissions for stored procedures. You
might find this useful:
