You should strive to use cfqueryparam *anywhere* you currently use a CF variable in any SQL statement, not just a select statement.
I add the disclaimer in that I don't use cfqueryparam for values that are created in my CF pages. I use them anywhere I accept user-supplied values. * They reduce the threat of sql injection attacks. * They auto-escape single quotes that can bring down the most-powerful of queries. * They increase performance of the query (negligible, I guess). * They look damn impressive.

Where should I use it and why. Is it just for selects?
