Does anyone know of a way to create a table using Cold Fusion 4.0 that saves the data in each cell as you edit them and updates a database. I had problems with CFgrid, so I decided to ask if anyone had done anything like this before using cfml, dhtml, shtml, java, javascript, or anything other than CFgrid? Thanks for any help that you can offer.

Not sure if I'm understanding you correctly. You want a table where each cell is essentially a form element where data can be entered. Once you update a cell, you want that info put into the db?
Why not make all the updates at once then "submit" the form thus negating the need to constantly update the database (which could be a severe load on the server and the database?)
I'm a staunch believer in keeping the server processing to a minimum, but at the same time, I don't fully understand the purpose of your app, so I can't really say one way is better than the other. Kevin
