I don't know the extent to which you are using ColdFusion, although I
would question why use CF to provide a search interface to SharePoint
when you could just use the SharePoint search features. I would
recommend getting rid of CF and shifting this functionality entirely
over to SharePoint if that is an option. SharePoint is very good at
what it does. For a more direct answer to your question I think you
will have to write custom code and I don't think too many people would
have experience with doing what you are trying to do. Maybe do a form
post with CFHTTP and parse the results. If all the documents to search
are in SharePoint and your CF Web site does more than just search
these documents, then the quickest solution would be to display a URL
to the new SharePoint system on the CF search page.
