Question

Find street address in "ALL" cfm files

Our charity has moved to a new address and our Coldfusion programer is on medical leave.

How can I search our Coldfusion files to find the Old Address and than I can change the data to our new address?

I tried using Windows XP Explorer to search our Local Host web site and no files have been found.

Thank you

    ColdFusion source files (.cfm and .cfc) are usually just text files (like .htm or .html files), so a search from Windows Explorer should find the information you are looking for, **if the address is hard-coded into a ColdFusion source file**.  If ColdFusion is retrieving that information from some other location (such as a database), you'll have to track down that location to make the change there.
