be addressing the issue with some type of function check.
I'll doubly doubt (as in "well hell freezes over") that CF will ever be
strongly typed. ;^)
But I think many of the problems (not all) would be addressed by some "null
aware" functions. Perhaps something like "IsNull()" to test and "Null()" to
create a null value that could be passed around or tested again?
I'm not saying that's what's going to happen (I've not heard anything either
way) but it seems to me an idea that could work and still maintain CF's
mostly loosely typed nature.

Subject: Blackstone Strong Typing? was Re: CFX_FileReadLn
Yeah, I think there was some code with a more formal EOF test
recommended by someone.
If Blackstone has a NULL, then is it reasonable to assume that it may
also have optional strong typing? -- then if that is so, couldn't one
code CF in such a way that more closely approached Java -- then here
we go, down the garden path :)
