What's changed about it? Anyway, Why can't you just exclude it from one of the tables like you said. My guess is that they are identical values every time anyway. Why have it in there twice?

Is this a CF issue or an Access database driver issue? http://azarflooringgallery.com/bud.cfm This is a very simple, and quite standard query. SELECT M.*,C.* FROM Main_Categories M LEFT OUTER JOIN Categories C on M.Main_Category_ID = C.Main_Category_ID Note the Main_Category_ID is being returned with the alias in it's name. The field is actually named Main_Category_ID C.Main_Category_ID and M.Main_Category_ID I'm getting the error Variable MAIN_CATEGORY_ID is undefined. I can get it to go away, but only if I manually enter all field names and exclude Main_Category_ID from one of the tables. Why would someone change the behavior of something so drastically? This will be affecting code everywhere. -- Bud Schneehagen - Tropical Web Creations, Inc. _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ Web Based Solutions / eCommerce Development & Hosting http://www.twcreations.com/ - http://www.cf-ezcart.com/ Toll Free: 877.207.6397 - Local & Int'l Phone/Fax: 386.789.0968 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:260849 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
