Hi Robert, To get the first letter of a string, use the left() built in function. <cfif left(string,1) eq "A"> <cfset alpha=left(string,1)> Jerry Johnson >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/08/03 09:51AM >>> I need to do an alphabetical check of each book title in a long list. I want to check each title by its first letter so I can create a bookmark to it. Anyone have a simple CF code that can search the first letter in a text string? Still a newbie. Thanks.
