It sounds like it's a simple as: cfif ListFindNoCase(get_tobacco.tobaccoContents,get_content.ContentsID), if you only need to look at one record from get_tobacco, If you need to compare to all record, try: cfif ListFindNoCase(ValueList(get_tobacco.tobaccoContents),get_content.ContentsID )

You could do this in CF by first querying the zap table, and then looping over those query results and issuing a query against advert_details for each search term - but I wouldn't do that! This is the type of thing that you should get the database to do for you. There are a couple of ways to do

If you're talking about an Access database, and all you want is the last date modified for the mdb file, use the CFDIRECTORY tag. It can read a directory and return info on files in that directory. If you only have one mdb file in the directory you can use the filter= attribute so that you

You just create the content of each tab as a separate page. Clicking on a tab is a hyperlink that sends them to the correct page. You can either reload the entire page, or you could do it with frames. I have found it easier to format it the way I like by using tables and reloading the entire

Just use a numeric reference to the column's position in your order by. In your example, if you want to order by the highest total points, just say: ORDER BY 2 because SUM(AdjPoints) is the second column. Bob -Original Message- From: Jay Patton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent:

You could do this by storing the query in a shared memory scope, such as server, application, or session, and then you could use CFOUTPUT or CFLOOP to iterate through the query and only process records that met certain criteria. My guess is that you would get terrible performance from this,
