Sort of. I don't want to have to include the cfparam line at all, though, since there are so many times when I won't know what parameters are going to be used in a page at the tim that I write it -- such as when a form has been dynamically generated and can contain different fields each time it is generated, based on user input or results from a database query. -- Richard S.
