RE: Removing Duplicate Values in a List

[Jason Lees (National Express)]

<cfquery name="Keywords" datasource="#DS#" username="#DSUsername#"
password="#DSPassword#">
SELECT DISTINCT Keywords
FROM        Photos
</cfquery>

This will return a query where there are no Duplicates.

I've have tried this and it doesn't work. Here's a little better
explaination.

<cfquery name="Keywords" datasource="#DS#" username="#DSUsername#"
password="#DSPassword#">
SELECT      Keywords
FROM        Photos
</cfquery>

<!--- Creates a list and Alphabetizes out of the database, i.e.
bear,elk,wolve --->
<cfset KeywordList = ListSort(ValueList(Keywords.Keywords), "textnocase")>

Know is where I run into a problem. This list will contain duplicate values
that I want to replace

Any ideas?

Thanks for your time

I have a List that is generated from a query, How about do I remove
duplicate values within the list? I couldn't find any kind of reference to
this anywhere not even in Ben's Bible. Thanks for your help!
