I'm sorry. I dont think I explained this very well. My application
will be deployed as a separate install and I would like to have my
users be able to configure a XML file (e.g. settings.xml) vs. having
to document and explain how to use the OpenBD admin ui to set the
datasource and possibly more.

So I would like to set a datasource object containing all of the
datasource info and use that in my cfquery (e.g. <cfquery
datasource="#application.config.dsn# ...)


Thanks,
Charlie
