Hi all, I've searched for this, but haven't found the answer and it is probably staring me right in the face. I have a local developer install of ColdFusion. Being the security minded person I am :), I installed CF9 without the ODBC services since I don't use them. Well, now I have to and I can't figure out how to install them without uninstalling CF completely and starting from scratch. Has anyone out there ever done it and if so can you tell me how? Thanks, Steve

Never mind, I found it. Just create a script with the following: <cfscript>   //login   adminObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator");   adminObj.login("YourPasswordHere");   // instantiate   myObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.datasource");   // install ODBC services   writeOutput("Installing ODBC Services...<br />");   returnValue = myObj.installODBCservice();   writeOutput("ODBC Services installed."); </cfscript> Thanks anyway, Steve Hi all, I've searched for this, but haven't found the answer and it is probably staring me right in the face.

it can be done, but TBH it is actually quicker to reinstall CF. You can use the Coldfusion Archive to backup all your settings, then you wont lose anything. ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----
