try this, as u r getting data to select box from the query, u simply order
the result set in the query itself.

<cfquery name="sort" datasource="dsname">
select fieldNAME from table
order by fieldname
</cfquery>

<table>
<tr>
<td><select name="abc">
<cfoutput query="sort"><option
value="#fieldname#">#sort.fieldname#</option></cfoutput></select></td>
</tr>
</table>

Subject: Alphabetical Order


I have a drop down list that is filled in with the
data from a query. Is there a way to alphabetically
arrange the list. It looks really ugly and difficult
to read when it is not in the alphabetical order.

Is there a built in function in CF for that.

Appreciate.
AB
