Thanks Gregory, I had tried that earlier, and kept getting errors - I was trying to add the DATEPART to the SQL group by as well.. doh!
I ended up with SELECT ... DATEPART(dy,orders.orderdate) AS myDate ... then using myDate as the group="" param in the query output - works like a charm.. Thanks!

The trouble I'm having is with the time value. I need to group on the date alone. Do I need to store the values seperately, or can SQL parse it in the query as only the date portion so CF can use it in the <cfoutput group="">? </CF_BrainFart> Jeff Beer Director of Application Development Digital Stormfront, Inc http://www.digitalstormfront.com <http://www.digitalstormfront.com> ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
