FWIW -- you can do some calculations within pound signs -- something like #myquery.recordcount+1# should work I think, as long as myquery exists as a query. If the query doesn't exist it will error of course. So, it's possible that the OP's actual problem was that the query wasn't defined.
<cfset myvar = 2> <cfoutput>#myvar + 1#</cfoutput> This will output 3. -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Roberts" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2008 5:00 PM Subject: RE: query2excel > You have the "#" signs around the entire statement.
