First of all, thank god i'm not the last person in the world to stop
using uppercase code =)
Second... if coldfusion says DIFFTYPE doesn't exist, then it probably
means that none of your <cfcase> statements matched, and thus difftype
was never set.
Probably because you have an error in your cfswitch expression. That
expression always evaluates as the string "lead_time_type_id"
It should be:
<cfswitch expression="#lead_time_type_id#">
One other note... you don't need # symbols when referring to variables
as function arguments, ie:
<cfset diff = DateDiff(difftype, now(), deadline)>
versus
<cfset diff = DateDiff(#difftype#, now(), #deadline#)>
