or #countryName[region][1]# if the query is only supposed to return a single row - the problem of course will occur if the query returns no rows, then [1] (or any number) will produce an error whereas #countryName.myregion# would return an empty string. So if there's any doubt that the query might ever be empty, you end up needing something like this <cfif countryName.recordcount>#countryName[region][1]#</cfif>
