Thanks for the pointer about the STATUS attribute. A little googling and I find out it's described on a ColdFusion 8 man page, and says it was introducted in MX 7. So far so good. Hopefully it will make things a little less opaque.
I am aware of the table of formats Verity is said to read. I'm wondering if it is up to date (than say the cfindex man page;-) I take a collection and index it using the Administrator against a single directory with two .html files and a .doc file. No matter how I play around with the extensions, I either get the 2 .html files indexed, or none of them. The .doc file is from 2000 and I believe it is Word 95, so it should work, although I suppose there could be some reformatting or something along the line... As for the scheduled jobs, they are within a mail tag that works fine if I dummy the cfindex calls. From some other threads here I suspect our collections are simply too large. I saw 10,000 being passed around as a limit.
