You can use <cfcontent> to export your results to Excel.

Things in general to watch out for with large numbers of query results are:

1.  Too many records can overwhelm the browser.  As a rule of thumb, we
won't display more than 1000 records on a web page.
2.  Even excel has a limit.  For Excel 97 you are restricted to 65,536
rows.

If your query is running slow, look at your sql and your database design.
Maybe the answer is to add an index or something like that.

****************
I have problem with a query that I am doing in access with CF.  The query
is returns a lot of records and causes the browser (netscape 4.78 and the
network security won't upgrade!)  to go "not responding" for a while then
it produces the query results.  The query comes out as one table, they want
to see all the records in one page.  Any suggestions on how to make this
run better so the users browser doesn't crash or give them the impression
that it has crashed?

Does having the whole query result in one table slow things down?

Providing that the above is a problem that the results are just to big.
Can anyone tell me how convert my query results in to an Excel Spread and
produce a link that the can download.
