it's not that it's getting converted...it's that its value is an empty string. even val() won't convert an empty string.

Subject: value "" cannot convert to number
Hi Everyone,
Can someone tell be why I get a string convert error. I have tried setting up ID to Val(ID) and even IncrementValue(Val(ID)), but all it ever returns is either 0 or 1, respectively. Apparently ID is not getting converted. "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!" What is wrong with converting a string to a number, especially when the string is just a concatenation of numbers?
Many thanks,
Sam
The value "" cannot be converted to a number
155 : <CFOUTPUT>#ID#</CFOUTPUT>
156 : <CFSET ID=ID + 1>
