hi andy query 1 has 2 columns firstName and lastName
then i want to query the database to ensure that each firstName and lastName combination exists in the database, if not then i want it to return me a list of those that dont. i have achieved this through a loop but i am thinking there must be a quicker way of doing this directly in a cfquery, as it is taking too long when there are thousands of names it has to check thanks ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:303889 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
