Never mind ... In the time it took for the message to post I figured it out.
I guess a good outcome of a slow list, it's encouraging us to find the
answers ourselves. And, as we all know, you retain more when you figure it
out yourself.
Just hope you're not under a deadline!!!
Thanks anyway ...

Subject: <cfexecute> question
I have the following <cfexecute> tag in my page ...
<cfexecute name="C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\md5\md5.exe"
arguments="-s, 'John, Doe, 123456789'"
outputfile="C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\text.txt"
timeout="1">
</cfexecute>
The script is executing fine (from what I can tell - I have a try/catch
block around it); however, nothing is getting written to the text.txt file.
I've tried taking the additional arguments out and just having "-s" ... for
I'm not sure if I'm passing the additional arguments correctly, but still
nothing is happening.
Any suggestions ... and while I'm at it, how do I pass arguments to the exe?
