I have a file that has HTML along with coldfusion tags. I have to read in data files then somehow get this HTML file to the users PC as a word doc. I thought I could use the FileReadLine() to read a line then use the CFFILE action append to write a file to the server. I found that when <HTML> was read in nothing was written to the file. If I change the text to HTML> then HTML> is written out. I put a cfoutput tag in my function to output what was passed, when <HTML> was read the function received nothing or spaces, when HTML> was read the function received HTML>.

    Here is my code
    <cfscript >
    myfile = FileOpen("C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\OIG Generator\oig.txt","read");
    while (! FileIsEOF(myfile))
    {
    x = FileReadLine(myfile);
    writefile(x);
    }
    </cfscript>
    <cffunction name="writefile">
    <cfargument name="lineToWrite">
    <cfoutput>#lineToWrite#</cfoutput>
    <cfabort>
    <cffile action="append" file = "#variables.OIG_file##EnvCount#.txt"
    output = "#lineToWrite#">
    </cffunction>
