Hi,

Can someone suggest a better way to sum a numeric column in a query? The
solution is probably painfully simple, but I've been struggling for an hour
or two on it (only have online docs available).

<CFOUTPUT>#ArrayDeleteAt(GetHours,1)#</CFOUTPUT>
<CFLOOP query="getMainList">
   <CFOUTPUT>#ArrayAppend(GetHours, "#numberformat(hours)#")#</CFOUTPUT>
</CFLOOP>

Line 3 produces a string of "YES"s at the top of my output- one for every
record in the query.

The following gives me the result I need, but I can't get around the
display of the YES's that appears.

<cfset cost = ArraySum(GetHours)*65>
<CFOUTPUT>
    <P>The sum of the numbers is #ArraySum(GetHours)# hours. At $65/hr,
this equals #dollarformat(cost)#
</CFOUTPUT>

TIA,
--John
