here is the code:
<cfif fileexists(&quot;c:\Inetpub\

http://wwwroot\ltw\docs\PO\#cust##trim(po_no)#.pdf&quot;)

eq &quot;yes&quot;>

<a href=&quot;\\Xanadu\xanadu\Docs\po\#cust##trim(po_no)#.PDF&quot;>View PO</a>

<cfelse>

</cfif>

I guess the other server isn't set up as a webserver, otherwise you'd just put the IP/domain name of the server in a link and link to the data that way.

If you can setup the machine so that it is running as a webserver but not actually serving pages up to the web then you could use CFHTTP to get the files that you want.

Either that or you setup FTP on the server and use CFFTP to get the file from the other sever and write it to the webserver and serve it up to the user.

I might be thinking to narrowly here and just using CF but thats my 2 cents as they say

Heop this helps!
