If that's all you're trying to do , then it's super-simple:
<cfcomponent name="testservice">
<cffunction name="testfunction" access="remote" returntype="query">
<!--- do the query --->
<cfquery name="myquery" datasource="#datasource#">
SELECT ...
</cfquery>
<!--- return the query --->
<cfreturn myquery>
</cffunction>
</cfomponent>
Make sure you specify the access type as "remote" and the appropriate
returntype, and it'll be available as a web service! If you store the
file as testservice.cfc in the directory {webroot}/cfcs/ then you can
consume the web service as
http://www.myserver.com/cfcs/testservice.cfc?wsdl
That'll do it. :o) Or were you planning on something more complex?
