I think I overlooked this originally...It appears that "Parkground:officedepot:chaipeking:cab" is the file name and it has no extension - and it appears that they are using a PDF form to upload the file.
: are illegal in windows shares...but older OS clients used it. Can you do a replace on the file name before you process it with cffile? -- Chris R.

I have a user that is on a MAC uploading a file that looks like this, E:\fileuploads\2010-04\parkground:officedepot:chaipeking:cab in NOLA.pdf. This is causing the system to throw an error and not upload the file. I haven't really worked on a MAC and was not really familiar with any issues related to this. Does anyone have any tips in dealing with MAC files? Any UDFs to aid in dealing with them?
