Try this: 1) mysql_connect() to the Wordpress database (using the database user, name, password from /config.php) 2) $rawCForms = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT option_value FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = 'cforms_settings'")); 3) $arrayCForms = unserialize($rawCForms); Hey Kyle, I think you could do that.

I am trying to access specific cforms data from a page outside of Wordpress so that I can eliminate all of the excess and then print out a formated table.

I've been using cforms on a particular project and, well, I freaked out when I saw how they stored the form data. Why, oh why wouldn't they want to use a separate table with each row, perhaps, having the form-specific data? It seems like storing it as a gigantic serialized string is just asking for trouble.
