Yes, I know, and I am using that in one part of the page. Here's the rub.
I am being given a spreadsheet that I have no control over. The column
headers in the spreadsheet contain periods(for example, a column header
might be "5.1.A.1.C"), that when imported to sql server are converted to "#"
signs, so it becomes "5#1#A#1#C".
I was using something along these lines:
<cfloop list="qry.columnList" index="column">
<cfset colValue = #evaluate(column)#>
...other stuff here...
</cfloop>
However, CF does not like trying to evaluate columns that have "#" in them.
I have a few other ideas, but I was hoping I could refer to the columns by
an index.
If I do a CFDump of the query, I get the correct values in the columns, so
CF can process the table on some level. But I can't loop through the column
names and evaluate them, and by the same token I cant use <cfoutput
query="qry">#columnName#</cfoutput>. Beside, I don't even know what the
column names will be as they are subject to change.
Thanks for your help

Each query includes a variable called columnList that you can look at.
<cfoutput query="qry">
#evaluate("qry." & listGetAt(qry.columnList, 2))#
</cfoutput>
