RE: OT: SQL Manager?
Oops. Sorry. Should've read the whole post. How about SQL Server Management Studio? 1) It's free with SQL Server 2K5. 2) All your tools are available from one interface. 3) It's backwards compatible with SQL Server 2K. 4) and... you can register the same server multiple times with different credentials.

RE: advice wanted regarding short notice
Isaac, I left Las Vegas about two years ago because there isn't much of a market for CF developers. Be warned that when your contract runs out, you may not be able to find another job. My advice to you would be to take things slow. If you are considering relocation, there are plenty of jobs for a developer of your caliber that won't require a pay cut. For example, in Pennsylvania, where I live, there are several pharmaceutical companies that are currently hiring for CF positions. -- Mike Wolfe -Original Message- From: S. Isaac Dealey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, March 25, 2006 7:35 PM To: CF-Jobs-Talk Subject: advice wanted regarding short notice Hi, I have several recruiters who are supposed to contact me in the upcoming week. No offers, just several leads; 2 in Las Vegas, 2 in Ann Arbor MI (I have family there), one in Cleveland and 2 more in the DC Metro area. I've been focusing my efforts primarily on finding something in the DC Metro area with several challenges, including the fact that I don't have a degree and the fact that since it turned out I had to take a pay-cut to accept my last job, I'm still flat broke 5 months later and can't afford to pay up-front to move the 2 hours north to the DC area. Today I received a call from a recruiter with a job in northern Virginia (DC Metro). Asside from mentioning being impressed with my very niche resume, he described being in a real hurry to fill this job because the previous programmer told them yesterday without warning that he wouldn't be in the office on Monday because he'd accepted another job. I'm to check in to a hotel tomorrow afternoon/evening on their account so that I can interview with the client (Department of the Interior) on Monday. If I'm approved and accept the offer Monday, I would be on a 6 week contract at $45/hr starting Tuesday and they would pay all my hotel costs. The recruiter says that the project is expecting to be refunded soon (I assume 6 weeks) and he expects they would likely make me a permanent employee in the next month or two roughly coinciding with the funding, at which point there would be salary negotiation. Here's my list of my concerns: PRO: 1) government client, not requiring a degree and not requiring a security clearance (I'm not opposed to getting one, but it'll be nice if I don't have to put up with the hassle) 2) assuming the recruiter is being honest, it seems like this might be an easier way to overcome the issue of convincing a company in DC that I'm not only good enough to not need a degree at $80k but that it's worthwhile to advance me cash for relocation. 3) great rate -- I wonder about this tho because one of the jobs in Vegas is a 12 month contract where the cost of living is significantly lower and they're offering the same rate, so I wonder if I'm not getting $50 just because they're being cheap (although they are paying for the hotel if I accept the job). CON: 1) It seems not unlikely that there may be problems with the job -- the previous programmer leaving suddenly isn't confidence inspiring, although it's not proof of anything 2) If I decide to accept the job tomorrow, I have to pass up the opportunity to interview with and possibly consider several other offers in the next week or two (they'd want me to start Tuesday, so I wouldn't even be coming home between the interview and the job). 3) If the project isn't refunded, even at $45/hr I may be in serious financial distress after taking the next month to move us the two hours north. 4) The recruiter described my skills as being very niche. What bothers me mostly is that he said most of their government clients have been hiring .NET developers instead and seemed to imply (if not outright say) that ColdFusion is a dead/dying technology. I'm wondering if I should just blow this off as simple ignorance on the part of the recruiter or if I should take this as a bad omen. I have a phone interview with one of the companies in Vegas at 5pm tomorrow that will need to be taken from the hotel room. I'm also not sure how many other contacts I'll have to postpone until Tuesday at the earliest because I'll be unavailable tomorrow. I'm interested in hearing others thoughts on this. I'm having some buyers remorse about agreeing to the interview because I'm concerned that accepting the job may be another big mistake (like the last job I accepted), or that even if I don't accept the job that postponing contact with other recruiters until Tuesday may be problematic.

Subject: Can you reset row numbers in a DB after deleting all rows?
MS Access
CF 5
Can you reset rows numbers back to starting at row number 1 in a DB, after
deleting all rows?
The goal is to totally erase and restore DB, on the fly, from time to
time.
New info will have the same columns, but a different number of rows each
time. The Delete Row function of a CFQUERY will do this, but the new row
number starts where the delete row numbers left off. We will eventually
run
out of row numbers.
Or is there another way to do this, e.g., delete and regenerate the table
anew on the fly?

RE: CFMX - best way to strip content from html page
Rob, I just went through this situation while building my new webmail app.And I have to agree with the others... It's not an easy thing to strip html and just leave the content. I had to use several different functions to get the job done: 1) Replace all BR and P tags with CR/LF's (thanks to Ben Forta for his ParagraphFormat2 UDF!) 2) Strip all scripts, applets and objects. 3) Strip all HTML tags. The most important thing I learned from all of this is that most situations are unique. Depending on your application, you will need to strip specific portions of a page. You said that you need a generic solution, but I don't think that is possible. The best solution for you would probably be to develop maps for each site. 1) Examine a site and and create a set of regex's that, when run in order, will give you the result you want. 2) Store the maps in a file or db table. 3) Run a query to get the map for the site. 4) Do a CFHTTP to get the initial content 5) Loop through the map query and do REREPLACE's on the content. 6) Save the result HTH -- Michael Wolfe [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ From: Rob Rohan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 09, 2004 9:21 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: CFMX - best way to strip content from html page On Mon, 2004-02-09 at 09:06, Tyler Clendenin wrote: My only recommendation would be difficult.

Java for ColdFusion Developers by Eben Hewitt http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0130461806 I'm looking for a book that gives the nuts-n-bolts of using Java from within ColdFusion, and this one has several good reviews on Amazon.

Hi Massimo, First, let me say that I'm not a Java newbie... What I'm looking for is a book that gives specific examples of how to integrate Java in my existing CF code. Specifically, I'm working on an app that checks IP addresses against DNSBL lists. I know that I can do this using a CFX tag, but I would rather do it using java.net.Socket, for both performance and reliability reasons. -- Michael Wolfe [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ From: Massimo, Tiziana e Federica [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 26, 2004 1:02 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Java for ColdFusion Developers Java for ColdFusion Developers by Eben Hewitt http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0130461806 I'm looking for a book that gives the nuts-n-bolts of using Java from within ColdFusion, and this one has several good reviews on Amazon.

Basically, it's all exactly the same, except for constructors: Java: - Socket s = new Socket(10.10.1.1, 80); s.close(); ColdFusion (CFSCRIPT): -- s = createObject(java, java.net.Socket); s.init(10.10.1.1, 80); s.close(); You may need to use javaCast() for some parameters.For example, CF doesn't know what an int is (it only uses double), so you sometimes have to explicitly use javaCast for int parameters. You can also use CF tags (CFOBJECT, CFINVOKE) to do all that stuff, but I don't know the syntax, because I always use CFSCRIPT or CFSET to do everything.

RE: Simple way to check for valid date?
Let me qualify my answer... IsDate checks for a valid date, but CF has funny notions about valid dates. Basically, you can enter almost any value you want for the year part of the date, and CF will accept if. So... you need to check if the date is within a valid range also. I have recently had a need to use this in a medical billing app I am working on. Since some of the patients are over 100 years old, I use a function like this: cfif not IsDate(birthdate) or Abs(DateDiff(, birthdate, Now()) GT 120) !--- error code here --- /cfif -- Michael Wolfe [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Mike Kear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 05, 2003 2:25 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Simple way to check for valid date?

RE: Mail spooling issue

Can it be prevented at the application level vs the core CF level. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Casey, I used to work for a company that sends approximately 1 billion (yes, billion) emails a month (and yes, they are spammers). The emails are created via a CF application run from the command line that spools the emails to a database. The outbound spooling is handled through a separate application on the mail servers that pulls the emails from the database and fires them out through Sendmail. We learned long ago about the spooling bug in CF5, and also that CF5 is not at all suited to operate as a high-volume mail server. If you continue to experience this bug, my advice to you is to implement a solution such as I have described. You don't have to use Sendmail. There are plenty of small, cheap (or free) mail servers available. My personal favorite is ArgoSoft Mail Server (http://www.argosoft.com). It supports SMTP, POP3 and IMAP, as well as having an API that you can access directly from CF.

RE: cfdirectory help - photo album
If you pass to the display page the forward and back values, and then click forward or back, how are you going to know what the next next or previous previous values are. I would instead suggest that on the display page you again do a cfdirectory, and then grab the previous and next files from the list on each display of the page. Performance tip: If you have a lot of users hitting the gallery pages, your hard drives will take quite a beating from all of the CFDIRECTORY accesses. Unless your gallery is constantly being updated, store the CFDIRECTORY result in an application variable. Then, all you have to do is check for existence of the application variable each time the page loads. If you are using CFMX, you can make this even easier by putting the code into a CFC.

(I'm still learning this schtuff too) Now, the issue I see in simple tests is the sharing of the apf file. If I add a new file to the project other users don't see it until I save the project, something I would forget to do for hours on end for sure. Or, perhaps the way to use this is to setup dev environments on each dev work station? looking for some advice here. Thanks! Doug -- Douglas, You have a couple of options: 1) Add the CF project file to VSS. There's an option to do this if you right-click on the project in CF Studio. The advantage of this is that developers can share and merge the project file. The disadvantage is that VSS does NOT make it easy for two developers to work on the same file. 2) Set up a seperate dev environment for each developer. Let each developer manage their own project, and use VSS as a central file repository. This has worked quite well for me in the past.

I have used it before, and it worked quite well with CF Studio 4.5.2. The only thing I could advise would be ensure that you only add files to VSS through your CF Studio project (that way, the files are in both your project and the VSS database). Another option is to use DWMX's Check-in/Check-out features. In CF5 and HomeSite+, you can set your projects to auto-include new files, so as long as your project folder is also your VSS working folder, both the CF and VSS projects will stay up to date.
