Hi Niklas,

Russ came up with another idea of using BCP to import the information to a
table in native format and then using DTS to transfer to the relevant table
so going to have a look at that, will update on my findings.

Thanks,

Lee,

I remember people talking about mass inserts on CFCHAT years ago.  Try
Googling for mass or multiple insert.

I guess the idea is that you could create all the SQL in CF and then output
the generated SQL between a CFQUERY tag.

If that makes sense?

Cheers

Niklas
