Andrea,
Lucky you! It is already a list, only it is delimited by carriage returns
rather than commas. You can loop over it just like any other list, you'll
just need to specify the delimiter to be a carriage return (#chr(10)#)
rather than a comma. OR, if you want to change it to be a standard comma
separated list, you can use the ListChangeDelims(list, new_delimiter [,
delimiters ]) function.
<CFFILE ACTION="Read"
FILE="full_path_name"
VARIABLE="email_list">
<CFSET lEmailList = ListChangeDelims(email_list,",",CHR(10))>

Subject: Easiest way to get a text file into a List?
I have a text file that I need to get into a list or an array so I can
compare it to the results of a query. Anyhow how can I read in that file and
turn it into a list? The file is made up of email addresses, one per line,
no comma delimiters, just carriage returns.
Thanks
Andrea
