Title: How to Ask for the Correct Title in CFIF?
Date: 06/14/03      3 Posts
Summary: This brief exchange packs a lot of punch. It contains solid advice about normalizing data and offloading the task of returning a valid CFMAIL salutation to the DBMS. Note that a CASE statement in the database layer replaces a series of CFIFs in the presentation layer...a definite performance boost.
 
Title: DBAs/SQL Server Experts?
Date: 06/15/03      23 Posts
Summary: If you detach a SQL Server database so it can be copied, be sure to reattach it and reset its connection parameters on the destination server. This thread also includes instructions for configuring a SQL Server data source in CFMX without going through the ODBC Socket.
 
Title: Base64 Encoded Email
Date: 06/15/03      2 Posts
Summary: To convert Base64 encoded data into a readable string, first convert it to binary data with ToBinary(). You can then apply ToString() to convert the binary data to a string, like this:

   ToString(ToBinary(Base64_encoded_string))

This thread also references a first-rate Macromedia resource about "Using ColdFusion Variables."
