Allow for file selection so that a user could pick a data file on the server. now supports recursion (as of CFMX7), so getting the files is easy. Getting them into is a bit trickier because the returned query cannot be passed to as is ( needs a flat query, not hierarchical data).
The solution is actually quite simple, you need to add all of the relevant directories before you add the files with their paths, and then can do the rest. Here is a full working example of this in case anyone else finds it useful, the bulk of the work is the dirquery2treequery() function which does exactly what its name suggests.
