To steal from the docs: ColdFusion has a list of reserved keywords, which are typically part of the SQL language and are not normally used for names of columns or tables. To escape a reserved keyword for a column name or table name, enclose it in brackets.
Caution: Earlier versions of ColdFusion let you use some reserved keywords without escaping them. ======================================================================= Raymond Camden, ColdFusion Jedi Master for Hire Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM : cfjedimaster "My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." - Yoda > -----Original Message----- > From: Mark A.
