Good suggestion - I'll give that a try today. Thanks to all who replied - I'll look into this further and let you all know if I find anything substantial or if it's an error I introduced and haven't found yet :)

Generally speaking it might be better using cfthrow or cfrethrow to pass the error message back to the calling template and let it worry about the error. But that doesn't explain why cfabort is not working properly. cheers... > I think you're supposed to use cfexit in custom tags. > > > Steven D Dworman > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Web Consultant > Systems Administrator > > ComSpec International - http://www.comspec-intnl.com > phone: 248.647.8841 > cell: 734.972.9676 > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > EMPOWER-XL ***Software for Higher Education*** > http://www.empower-xl.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Steven Lancaster [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 9:52 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: CFAbort in 5.0 > > I use it all the time and have not had a problem.
