For the app I am working on, the "power users" are given a maintenance
screen.  From this screen, they can build a free-form description. But, they
need to be able to include dynamic data in the description.

They are entering variable names in the description wrapped in # signs.
But, I cannot figure out how to get CF to realize that the data inside the
variable needs to be evaluated as well as the data itself.

I tried using the Evaluate function, but it blew up when it hit the # sign.

Sorry if this is a simple question, but I only get to do CF part time, and
appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Steve
