Well, that's a weird little article. The title could be a bit better - it makes the article seem to belong more in an Office tutorial perhaps. "Connecting Cold Fusion to Word", or "Exporting data to Word with Cold Fusion" maybe? Oh, and how come the beta articles suddenly have IE4 transitions?

How to do if you want to return more than one record?
Where must I write the CFLOOP tag in the RTF file because I don't know anything about RTF syntax?

We have been doing rtf documents just like your article describes. But when we upgraded to 4.5 and then to 4.5.1 the cold fusion pages that created rft doucments starting taking from 30 to 45 MINUTES to run. All the time was in CF putting the page together. Have you guys seen this? Thanks,
Jim Holbrook

Worked very well, but I have a question. I ran this, but it only will bring in the first record in a table, not all the records. What do I need to do?

Could this same approach be used with Framemaker documents?

This only seems to work with saving the file as a .doc and then opening it. It doesn't open as a word document in the browser. Would be nice to know if there is a way to open this doument in the browser(IE) as a word document.

I seem to be missing a step. I successfully create the file, but the RTF code are visible in it. I even tried to save as DOC inside Word, but RTF codes remain. With the codes in the document... IT IS WORTHLESS!!! A little help please.

I use this method all the time and it works great. The key is to have as clean a word file as possible. However, I have only been able to get one record at a time also. It is fine for just pulling up one but I can't get more than one even using a cfloop. I also am looking for help on this one.

This appeared to be the answer to my problems, however it works great for 1 record. I am looping through a number of records and need to produce 1 document for each record but I only get a document produced for the last record. Can anyone help? Is it possible using this method to process multiple documents?

Dear Sir/Madam, I have tried your code and it looks good except if I have a Binary Field (such as .Gif or .jpeg)in the database (such as Oracle) table, and want to export the data (images or diagrams) of that field to a word document Template File. Is there any solutions for that? and how about uploading the data from the same file into the database? Please let me know. Thanks, Alex
