Ok - what am I doing wrong? I am building an intranet and want users to be able to upload graphics. Everything works fine and the file is uploaded with the correct name to the correct folder. However, the file name (CFFILE.SERVERFILE)is being changed (e.g., C:\WINNT\TEMP\ACF165.tmp) when I try to write it to my database field (photo).

I know I need to make a connection between cffile.serverfile and PHOTO. I'm stumped as to how. Nothing seems to work.

Thanks!

Thanks much Izacher. It ran into the wall a few more times and came up with this - which works. I need to add error trapping and lock out the DB. I'm posting this in case it helps someone down the line. It only took me 20+ hours lol.
