try this.
myquery.firstname[2]
or it's this
myquery[2].firstname. 

Basically something to that effect. with cf queries you can access each row
using array syntax, but you still need to access each column by name.

There is no such thing as a specific row, the order the records are returned
to you (the rows) is random and undefined, it makes very little sense to ask
'what is the value of 'firstname' in the 2nd row.

If you really wanted to (for debugging I guess), you could
<cfscript>
lookfor=2;
for(i=0;i<qQuery.recordcount;i=i+1){
        if (i eq lookfor){ <output row> }
}

I guess I was unclear. Let's suppose I have no interest in a specific value
like ID=3 but just want to know what is in a particular row and column. Am I
always stuck using a where statement having to look for a particular value?
I understand that a where statement can locate an instance of some
particular. I would just like to do a search on a row and a column  in
general.

You can create whatever WHERE statement you wish to select whatever rows you
need from the DB

to get row 2, column 2:

SELECT password
FROM table
WHERE ID = 3

Thanks for the help on my newbie question. I learned a great deal believe it
or not. You were all kind.

Now one last question before I go back to the books.


See the database setup below.

ID       PASSWORD         FIRSTNAME         LASTNAME
4          sdf              greg             landry
3          gth              tom              jones

Lets say I wanted to see what is in the second record and see what's under
the column FIRSTNAME. What I am learning is that I have to print out the
entire database to see what is in it. I would just like to be able to know
how to access a particular element in a database. Like what's in row 2,
column 2?

Thank you so much for your patience and time.
