Well, looks like I stumped everyone! But never-the-less, I found my own solution using CFMX (the cfhttp tag). I will soon be totally Access free!

Back when I was using Access, I used to be able to link to a tab-delimited .txt file as a table, and then run a script to extract the data and place it in a real table. I find myself needing such an option now using MySQL, but what I thought would work wouldn't: LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE...

If you are running CF with Access, do yourself a fovor and switch to MySQL. I've got several apps running for clients that are under constant use, and I can't remember the last real issue we had that was CF or database related. I have some sites on win6 and some on winCF.

The way you have it should run every day at 8:30am. In order to run every 30 minutes of each 8th hour, I believe you'd need something like: 30 - minutes */8 - hours * - day of the month * - month * - day of the week

Stephen, I know what you guys are going through, and I appreciate your hard work in getting this resolved. Maxtor used to be a quality hard drive, but about 3 years ago I gave up on them. There's something about them that when they fail, they don't like to go down alone. They always take some...

Would help to see some code so we can look for errors that may be there, whether it's a problem between MX6 and MX7, or something else. Are you getting any errors, or just blank space where the content should be?

Not sure which mail server they are on, but one office uses Outlook 2003, another uses Thunderbird. One is on a T1, the other on DSL, both complain that mails are coming in over an hour after being sent, and that receiving mail takes a long time, too. If needed I can try to get more specifics...

I've been contacted by a couple of clients asking if something is wrong, as their email has been very slow, both sending and receiving. Anything in the mail server logs that shows a slowdown?

For a guestbook you have to use some sort of verification to make it harder for the bots to successfully submit the form. I have a guestbook on one site where I compare the fields looking for duplicate data. Also, if the email address they use is the domain of the site, it won't submit...

I have noticed a lot of spam in non-English characters. Is there a setting somewhere to only allow English language email? Thunderbird catches it right away and trashes it, but if I could stop it from even reaching my mailboxes that would be great.

MySpace and several others use BlueDragon for the .Net framework, which allow the pages to be coded in CF and run within .Net. Quote from their press release:

Legacy sites? Oh, you mean like AT&T Wireless, Bank of America, Boeing, Chicago Bears, DHL, Goodyear, The U.S. Senate, Mayo Clinic, SmartMoney.com, and many others? Of course, then you have the "legacy sites" running ColdFusion on a BlueDragon server - little sites, like MySpace.com, The...

I'll wait until tomorrow's scheduled run and see if it repeats. If it does, I'll post a ticket.

These are Linux cron. I set up a linux account, and run the cron jobs there to call cf pages on the other server.

Last week I had some business down in Miami, so I contacted Stephen to see if we could meet up. I've received a lot of help from Stephen over the last couple of years, and I wanted to put a face to the man behind the patient IMs and emails. Luckily we were able to find time to meet, and he was...

I've got a couple of cron jobs set up to run on a daily basis at a specific time. For instance, one runs every day M-F @ 2:50pm to send some lead data to about 600 subscribers via email. Today the thing ran 5 separate times - at 2:40pm, 2:50pm, 2:53pm, 2:55pm, and 3:01pm. This has also...

Some of the tastiest critters are cute!

Any idea why this affects only mail I try to send from a particular account? If I send email using any of my other Jodo accounts, there is no error, no Spamhaus message, everything works fine.

Ticket was replied to but problem wasn't fixed. I have reopened the ticket and asked that you be given the info.

Ticket opened already. Please see Ticket ID CQR-41513-703
