I had the same problem. What i did was a replace of all minus signs by an
underscore.

Subject: A knotty evaluate problem....
Morning all....
I have a little problem.....
I have a form that has a number of items for which you can change the
quantity for each item. The Quantity field is called Quantity_ and then has
the item ID appended to this.
In the update page I know the item ids for all the items on the previous
page, so I loop through them and build up the variable and check to see
whether the content has changed.
No problem there....
<cfset noqvar=evaluate(DE("OrderQuantity_#ID#")) >
<cfset neworderqty = evaluate(noqvar)>
The problem come when the seconf cfset above is executed. ID is a UUID
generated by CreateUUID(). When CF tried to evalute it I get an error. The
minus signs in the ID make CF try to subtract bits of the form field name
from other bits eg.
Form variable : OrderQuantity_B7935872-11DD-4FCB-887089EEAE37432C
CF tries to subtract 11DD from OrderQuantity_B7935872 and gets its knickers
in a twist when it sees the DD on the end of the number.
Does any one have any ideas how I can stop it from doing this and get the
contents of the variable?
