The listfirst, listlast functions worked great.
Thanks, Mark

Try looking at this as two items in a list and the list delimited by a
space. listfirst and listlast should do what you need.
VARIABLE.firstword = listfirst(db_field, ' ')
VARIABLE.secondword = listLast(db_field, ' ')

Subject: Splitting two word string
Hi all,
I have a string returned from a db field, such as "my dog" (these strings
will be different two word combinations, each word of different lengths -
which to me rules out the use of Left() and Right().
How would I take "my dog" and break it apart so that I can return two new
vars,
VARIABLE.firstword =
VARIABLE.secondword =
I've poked around on CFLib without much success.
Thanks, Mark
