Hi, i can reference a structure to get the value no problem like this:
<cfoutput>#session.questionDetails[1].subjectID#</cfoutput> but i need to be able to get data out without physically knowing the name of the element, as a simple example i am trying to do it like this: <cfset currentID = "subjectID"> <cfoutput>#session.questionDetails[1][currentID]#</cfoutput> the error says that it cannot convert complex objects to simple values. this is the same even if i try it like this: <cfoutput>#session.questionDetails[1]["subjectID"]#</cfoutput> can anyone help me realise what i am doing wrong. thanks very much ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:297989 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
