Dear Adam, It worked. Serializing the query to WDDX on OpenDB allowed me to return a WDDX packet to a regular CF page and convert that packet back into a CF query object. I just used the <cfwddx action = "cfml2wddx" input=#QUERY# output = "NAME"> on the web service in OpenBD and <cfwddx action = "wddx2cfml" input="#WDDXPACKETNAME#" output = "NAME"> on the CF page. Thanks for the suggestion. Not sure why JSON did not work or why you can't just return a native CF query object between OpenBD and CF over WDSL. But I'm not going to fight it since this works and so I'm happy.
