Ray, I know that the # signs in CF represent variables, Some code that I found in Flash 8 Unleashed by David Vogeleer actually shows using variables in this format for the DataGlue.bindFormatStrings(object, result, variable, variable) Regarding the scoping I was looking in the new wack ver 8 book and did not see anything listed regarding scoping on a cfreturn variable per se, pgs 214 to 215. Can you shed any more light on this subject? For that matter what really would be the best way to make a dynamic dir listing of zip files and use that list in a combo box to ge the selected item to read the xml file inside the zip file selected in the combo box and then finally get the values from the xml file and insert the data from the xml file into a sql table?
