Hi Alan,

Well, I'm not worried about expiring the cache manually. Actually, I want to
achieve the opposite.

I want to run a query and cache it for a set period of time. ex. 3 minutes.

As I mentioned previously, I found the 'CacheCreate' function explanation

http://www.openbluedragon.org/docs/index.cfm?function=cachecreate

But it doesn't say how to apply this to a query. Is a query 'CFDATA'? It's
not very clear. I don't even see how this can be used for a query.

Is this how I would use the cache create function?

<cfquery name="test" datasource="cfartgallery">
      SELECT    *
      FROM    Artists
   </cfquery>

<cfset CacheCreate( "querycache", "#cfartgallery#", 3 minutes )>

<!--- it's not clear how to define how long the cache is supposed to last
--->

And then if I want to query that cached query would I do this

<cfquery name="cachedquery" datasource="#querycache#">
      SELECT    *
      FROM    Artists
   </cfquery>
