I can think of a few solutions. Instead of the link going directly to the CF app, you could link it to an ASP page that posts the information to the CF app.
Or you could link it to an ASP page that sends a wddx packet to the CF app, since ASP has a wddx COM object at openwddx.org Another way would be to just create an ASP page that shows the user info only, as xml or wddx, or any other way you want to do it, and have the CF app load the data directly from it. ______________________ steve oliver cresco technologies, inc. http://www.crescotech.com -----Original Message----- From: W Luke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2002 1:56 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Getting ASP Info into CF Bruce, Someone might correct me, but I think WDDX could be a solution for this. It's something I too need to do for a client - get their data from ASP into my CF site..
