  Thanks for all of your help.  To help out a little more, here're my queries:

  <cfif #NullID.name# eq "">
  <cfquery name="insertData"
           datasource="source"
           dbtype="ODBC">
     INSERT INTO tblTable (name, var1) VALUES ('#userName.name#', '#val ("0" & form.var1)#')
    </cfquery>
  </cfif>

  <cfif #NullID.name# IS #userName.name#>
  <cfquery name="updateData"
           datasource="source"
           dbtype="ODBC">UPDATE tblTable SET var1=#val ("0" & form.var1)# WHERE name = '#userName.name#'</cfquery>
  </cfif>

    >>can you send the whole bit of code?

    Well, i don't where is the rest of the code, I just answered the problem "The value """" cannot be converted to a number."
    Adding "0" at the begining of the string will assure that the string is always transformable to a number through the val() function.

    Then if you are in a query,
    UPDATE myTable
    SET whatever = #val ("0" & form.var1)#
