Can the following code
<CFFile Action="Write"

I want to create a xml file using the CFFile command.

Thanks

Well, no since the output 'have a nice day' is not valid XML.
Otherwise, if you output something like, let us say '<aRoot>have a nice
day</aRoot>' -- or a variable that contained this --, that *was* bare
minimum, valid XML data, then you would have an xml file.

In other, less sarcastic, words. Yes <cffile ...> can write XML, or any
other text based, data to a file with easy.

It can even do something with binary files, but that takes more
knowledge and has more restrictions.
