I'm trying to query a db for the source and destination directories for my cfdirectory and then cfloop the directory to move all files.
How can I loop my db query for the cfdirectory and move on to the cffile.
Here is what I have.
<cfquery name="filemove" datasource="server">
select * from filemove
</cfquery>
<cfloop query="filemove">
<cfdirectory action="LIST" directory="#origin#" name="directoryList">
<cfloop query="directorylist">
<cffile action="move"
source="#filecopy.origin##
destination="#filecopy.des
</cfloop>
</cfloop>
With this is loops the cfdirectory and then the cffile so I only move files from one directory.
Thanks,

I noticed you have your first query names "filemove". Then you cfloop that query. In the cffile command, however, you are referencing "filecopy".
Is there a filecopy query you forgot to include here?
Do they both have origin and destin fields?
In your cfdirectory tag, is this "origin" variable you use coming from filemove or filecopy?
Jester,
I'm probably being completely stupid but I can't figure this out. Still not working. Here is what I have with some questions. With this code I get a nothing, no errors just nothing.
<cfquery name="filemove" datasource="server">
select origin,destin from filemove
</cfquery>
<cfdirectory action="list" directory="#expandPath('#f
<cfloop query="fileList">
<cfif #type# is "dir">
<cfoutput><b>#Name#</b>-<b
</cfoutput>
<CF_getDir dirPath="#expandPath('#fil
<cfelse>
<cfloop query="filelist">
<cffile action="move"
source="dirpath"
destination="#filemove.des
</cfloop>
<cfoutput>#Name#<br></cfou
</cfif>
</cfloop>
Try this
<cfdirectory action="list" directory="#expandPath('#f
<cfloop query="fileList">
<cfif #type# is "dir">
<cfoutput><b>#Name#</b>-<b
</cfoutput>
<CF_getDir dirPath="#expandPath('#ori
<cfset tmpdestin=destin/>
<cfelse>
<cfloop query="filelist">
<cffile action="move"
source="dirpath"
destination="#destin#">
</cfloop>
<cfoutput>#Name#<br></cfou
</cfif>
</cfloop>

<cfdirectory action="list" directory="#expandPath('.'
<cfloop query="fileList">
<cfif #type# is "dir">
<cfoutput><b>#Name#</b>-<b
</cfoutput>
<CF_getDir dirPath="#expandPath('.')#
<cfelse><!--- put your move code in here --->
