Perfect, thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for. Still haven't totally got used to Cold Fusion yet. I was using Tang (Witango), and the file write action didn't require additional formatting because it doesn't use ## symbols.

The cfml content has queries etc.... I'm getting all kinds of errors. Is there any way I can just get the cffile tag to write exactly what I want to the file parsing the cfml content? Error example: Invalid CFML construct found on line 18 at column 303. ColdFusion was looking at the following text: # The CFML compiler was processing: * A cffile tag beginning on line 1, column 2.
