Thanks for the feedback I've never used COM so I'm hoping it wont be too much trouble. Is it true that once the object is loaded in memory it can be destroyed from CF?

In CF4.x I couldn't get methods with parameters to work at all, they work better in CF5, but still not perfect, I never tried in CF3, so I can't comment on that Simple things like .replace() just wouldn't work in CF4.5 for me Philip Arnold Technical Director Certified ColdFusion Developer ASP Multimedia Limited Switchboard: +44 (0)20 8680 8099 Fax: +44 (0)20 8686 7911 www.aspmedia.co.uk www.aspevents.net An ISO9001 registered company. ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
