How do I view my tables that I have set up in my local CF Admin?

    Sorry. I have only just seen on rereading that you're talking about CF Builder. You should have gone to the CF Builder section of this forum!

    In any case, I have a suggestion based on my experience with the CF Builder plugin in Eclipse 3.7.1. (I am assuming you have enabled the use of RDS.) Go to the Eclipse/CF Builder menu and navigate to:

         Window => Show View => RDS Dataview

    A Graphical User Interface should appear, showing you the datasources created in the Administrator and their tables.

    Your tables are set up in the database, your datasources in the Administrator. To see your datasources, open the following file in an XML/Text editor:

    {CF_INSTALLATION_DIR}/lib/neo-datasource.xml

    Alternatively, you can also view the datasources by running the following command:

    <!--- Use your own password --->

    <cfset adminLogin=createobject("component","CFIDE.adminapi.administrator").login("my_cf_admin_pw")>

    <cfset ds=createobject("component","CFIDE.adminapi.datasource")>

    <cfset datasources=ds.getdatasources()>

    <cfdump var="#datasources#" >
