Hi Erik,
As I see it, there is more than one way to prepare your select box. At
a quick glance you look headed in the right direction. Here is an
alternative example of how I have done it...
<SELECT id="aname" name="aname">
<OPTION VALUE="-1">Select Something</OPTION>
<CFLOOP QUERY="ItemQ">
<CFIF PredeterminedValue EQ Item_ID>
<OPTION VALUE="#Item_ID#" selected="selected">
#Item#</OPTION>
<CFELSE>
<OPTION VALUE="#Item_ID#">#Item#</OPTION>
</CFIF>
</CFLOOP>
</SELECT>
