You'll have to change your FileExists to reference the new location, which
I assume isn't going to be "reports/blah blah", but more like "D:
\reports\blah blah"?
Create a new .cfm page to serve up the reports. This is the page you'll
call in your link, passing an appropriate URL parameter (get_report.ID?).
This page would just contain something like:
<cfparam name="URL.ID" default="">
<cfif NOT IsNumeric(URL.ID)>
<cflocation url="whatever.cfm">
</cfif>
<cfquery name="getReport">
SELECT path_name, doc_type, file_name
FROM Reports
WHERE ID = #URL.ID#
</cfquery>
<cfcontent type="application/ms-word" file="D:
\reports\#getReport.path_name#\#getReport.file_name#">
check what the mime type for your reports is in IIS. Also if they vary,
use the doc_type variable to perhaps cfswitch what you specify for the
cfcontent type.

help
Please respond to dev
Hmm maybe I din't explain that vey well.
The system used to pint at the reports that were originally accessable via
<a href = .....> hence the link.
What I need to know is how to reference the reports outside of IIS
How do I implement CFCONTENT into the code that's already there.
I haven't done this type of thing before ...Is there some example code I
can look at?
