Your select statement will always return 1 row, and it will either contain the
max number, or ""
So, use:
<cfquery name="qryHighestNum" datasource="ocreodsn">
Select Max(ReqNum) as HighestNumber
from PrintingReq
</cfquery>
<cfset NextReqNumber = val(qryHighestNum.HighestNumber) + 1>
No need for a cfif, since val("") returns 0
