In fact, that didn't work exactly how I thought it would :OP Try this instead
<cfset str = "Adrian Lynch Jnr"> <cfoutput> <p>#Left(str, Len(str) - Len(ListLast(str, " ")) - 1)#</p> </cfoutput> -----Original Message----- From: Adrian Lynch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23 February 2005 22:00 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: OT-SQL matching If it's always a one word suffix then try #Left(yourQuery.yourColumn, Len(ListLast(yourQuery.yourColumn, " ") + 1))# Not tested but it looks right. Ade -----Original Message----- From: Eric Creese [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23 February 2005 21:48 To: CF-Talk Subject: OT-SQL matching For a CF page I am doing I need to out put matched results. However in one table I have last names with a suffix like "MOLINA JR" and in another table the last name and suffix are in different columns. I need to strip out the suffixes as well as the preceding space in the first column. Any ideas. I am trying a few thing and it is not working. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
