RE: Deleting Multiple files with CFFILE??????

2004-12-14 Thread Burns, John D
I think the only way you'd be able to do it is to do a cfdirectory to get a list of all of the files, loop over that list to delete the files and then use cfdirectory to delete the directory. Cffile doesn't support wildcards that I know of and that's probably a good thing. Too many mistakes

I use iMail and functionally it's not bad. We haven't had any major problems or anything with it. It supports everything you mentioned and wasn't a bad price. I wish that they had a more open API that I could use to create accounts and such using CF. They have a few things, but they're pretty

CFEXECUTE Weirdness

I'm trying to use CFEXECUTE to automate some stuff with iMail. iMail comes with some .exe files for scripting various tasks such as domain creation, user creation, etc. One of the files is called adddomain.exe and I am using it to add a new domain to the imail server. I tested on a quick

I append a header to the email that contains the listID of the email list I'm sending to, the emailID (I number each email that is sent out for easier tracking) and the email address it was sent to. When I get bounce backs, most times these headers still exist and I handle bounces from those

Why did you ask your hosting company? There's nothing you need to do to install it. You just extract the files to a folder and then set the config files. It's all javascript and CSS. The CF files just make it easy to create an instance of the editor on a page. I have no clue where your host

Do they want you to build a web-based app or could they access the DB server directly? MS SQL Server has built-in capabilities for this with the import wizard. I've done a web-based app to do this sort of thing as well and can lend some advice if that's what you're looking for. Just let me know.

Ok, well, if you can GUARANTEE that the data will be in the proper order everytime than it's pretty easy. Obviously, you'll have to do some data-checking and stuff but if they're smart enough to give it in the correct format, that makes things much easier. In generic terms, what I've done is

Maybe make it into some kind of scheduled job that runs every X hours or something and populates a table with the new values rather than doing real-time queries. Then the 2 minutes isn't as big of a deal. It's probably still a good idea to make it a stored procedure and then just execute that
