Changing the Value of a field
- Thread starter fiber0pti

Exact error messages help also if there are any.Hey FiberOpti,
The cfupdate tag looks for the existence of form variables that have been submitted by a form. It will take all form variables avaialable and try to insert their values into the table specified into fields that match the form variables. If your form has variables that shouldn't go into the database, use the "formFields" attribute to specify which ones it should use. With CF 4.5, you can now set form fields to a value like this <cfset form.myFile = #File.ClientFile#> so you can modify form variables before a <cfupdate>.
Hope this helps,
GJ
