Hello all,<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;I have eliminated all possibilities and have it<br>down to this, I am trying a CFGRID template for the<br>1st time, and it's only while trying to browse the<br>beast in a Win98-SE client that I get a blank grey<br>box & at the bottom of browser, the &quot;can't find<br>the cfgridform applet etc&quot; error msg. No go with IE 5.0<br>or NS 4.6 It's not the browser version, as I'm OK with<br>IE-5.0 in NT-4.0 I have enabled all JAVA bits in the browser,<br>even downloaded & installed MS JM ver 5.0, blown out any security settings in the Browser, added &quot;enable cab&quot;<br>to my cfform tag, etc ..<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;All points to the bloody OS (win98).. <br>Has anyone else been down this rosy path ?
 
Replying to myself to save other people the trouble,<br><br>it looks more & moe like CFGRID is too badly engineered to<br>be seriously usable, & I will probaly be better off <br>continuing to build my own code to setup user admin of databases.<br>I'm just very stubborn & hate to see an issue be declared<br>unsolvable, but to be realistic, it's not worth my<br>time to bug-hunt a booby-trapped Java applet..<br><br>ciao-&nbsp;&nbsp;y'all<br>
 
Hey, I finally saw the grid. Do this, (you have no idea how many thing I've done) :

BE SURE OF HAVING THE CFIDE DECLARED AS A VIRTUAL DIRECTORY ON THE SITE THE CFM IS. FOR EXAMPLE: IN YOUR SITE YO HAVE THEN THE CFIDE FOLDER (LOCATED AS A FOLDER MAYBE BELOW C:\INTEPUB\ OR ANYWHERE ELSE) MUST BE A VIRTUAL DIRECTORY OF ( USING THE INTERNET INFORMATION SERVER OF YOUR SERVER
