If I use a scheduled task do I run the risk of a page request timing out? I kinda figured that Gateways in mx 7 would take as much time as they needed to complete whereas a scheduled task would be limited by the time-out of the page it's scheduled to run.

Am I way of base on this one?

Cheers, Pete (aka lad4bear)

Scheduled tasks are async requests, just not as nicely packaged as the
async gateway makes it. Just set up a scheduled task and run it with
CFSCHEDULE.
