Client variables - quick confirmation

Question

Can someone confirm something with client variables...
1. <cfparam name=client.colour value="blue"> in
application.cfm
2. On a web page <cfset client.colour="red"> and the
same page confirms this when I cfoutput the value
3 If I check that value on yet another page, it should be
red, shouldn't it ? But, instead its blue
I'm having a major problem with cfclientstore=myDSN where it
points to an Access2007 database via an ODBC socket connection.

Answer 1

sorry about that, my application.cfm does actually use the
correct format
<cfparam name="client.colour" default="blue">
I'm still getting the problem - does anyone else use MS
Access 2007 ? When I look at the database it's storing "blue" but
when I'm changing the value in another page with <cfset
client.colour="red"> its not storing this change in the access
database
I've tied upgrading CF from 8.0 to 8.01 with still no joy
I read Adobe's advice on a lack of Access 2007 driver, and
used the ODBC socket instead but still no joy
Is there anything in my cfapplication that could be messing
around ?
<cfapplication

sessionmanagement="Yes"
setclientcookies="Yes"
sessiontimeout="#CreateTimeSpan(0, 0, 360, 0)#"
applicationtimeout="#CreateTimeSpan(0, 0, 360, 0)#"
clientstorage="cfclientstore"
loginstorage="session">
