I use this code to examine a string:
<cfset myString = "vffbbfbvf">
String: <cfoutput>#myString#</cfoutput><p>
<table>
<tr><th>Index</th><th>Character</th><th>ASCII</th></tr>
<cfloop from="1" to="#Len(myString)#" index="iChar">
<cfoutput><tr><td>#iChar#</td><td>#Mid(myString,iChar,1)#</td><td>#Asc(
Mid(myString,iChar,1))#</td></tr></cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</table>
A web search turns up many ASCII charts, such as this one:
