Well ---- ;-)

We're using SQL 7 for all the database work, but we want to combine some tables (doing 
mods on a 3rd party program). We thought to use Transform/Pivot. That avoids running 
hundered of queries on a page (or even an additional 50) because of a funny table 
structure.

We approched the problem by building the Transform Query in ACCESS (their little 
wizards!) and then utilizing it in the CF code to access the SQL7 server.

So, that's how I can see the columns being properly named, but me hair is falling out 
at being inable to utilize the information. If it's a MS SQL 7 situation - then at 
least I know it's time to take a different approach!
