Thanks Alan, let me know how I can help.
By the way is there currently support for multiple values for an
attribute? For example I would expect this query to store two values
for Attribute2 (notice it is specified twice):
<cfquery name="qry1" datasource="SimpleDB" dbtype="amazon">
INSERT INTO MyDomain(ItemName, Attribute1, Attribute2, Attribute2)
VALUES ('PrimaryKey1', 'Value1', 'Value2', 'Value3')
</cfquery>
The resulting dump shows Attribute2 only contains the last value
specified, Value3, rather than both Value2 and Value3. Is there
another way to store multiple values or is that feature on the drawing
board?
Cheers,
Baz
