Sorry, this is probably very simple but I can't figure it out. I have a
pre-selected value on my select box but it won't display. It should
pre-select Maryland but it goes to the first option, Alaska. If I hard-code
"MD" into the 'SELECTED' parameter of the CFSELECT tag, the right option is
selected but if it is drawn from the query, it is wrong. Can anyone tell me
why?

The URL is:
http://206.239.48.11/test.cfm

The code is:
<CFQUERY name="query_state" datasource="closingquotesdev">
SELECT  state_des, state_abbrev
FROM states 
ORDER BY state_abbrev
</CFQUERY>

<CFQUERY NAME="GetCompanyAddress" datasource="closingquotesdev">
SELECT      state
FROM            dbo.comp_address
WHERE           comp_address.company_address_id = 299
</CFQUERY>


<CFOUTPUT>GetCompanyAddress.state:
#GetCompanyAddress.state#</CFOUTPUT><BR><BR>
<CFFORM ACTION="" METHOD="POST">
<FONT face="MS SANS SERIF, HELVETICA" size="-1">State: <FONT
COLOR="Red">*</FONT><BR>
<CFSELECT NAME="state" MESSAGE="Please select your state."
QUERY="query_state" VALUE="state_abbrev" DISPLAY="state_des"
SELECTED="#GetCompanyAddress.state#"></CFSELECT></FONT>
</CFFORM>


Thanks.
