Actually that wouldn�t work. It would create the variable in the session
scope. I don't think that's what he is after. He wanted to end up with a
variable called qnum2, not session.qNum2

This would also work (although it looks kinda strange):

<cfset "session.qNum#form.qNum#" = form.answer>

>>> Try this 
>>>
>>> <cfset session["qNum#form.qNum#"] = form.answer>
