You could do this with two tables in your database and do a join. This is
probably best as the data will be consistant no matter how you access it.
A good way to do this with CF is to create a structure like this:
<cfscript>
Prices=StructNew();
Prices.A=19.95;
Prices.B=21.95;
Prices.C=22.95;
...
...
...
</cfscript>
You could then reference the actual prices by #Prices.A#
Again, a database join might be a better solution but the above will be
functional.

I have a table that is dynamically populated from a db to show the item
number, description, price and image of products.
Although there are several hundred items there are only about 6 prices.
Rather than inputting the price of each item into the database, I would
prefer to put a letter designation then set the letter to equal a price. so
that when prices change I only have to reset the price once per price versus
changing all the prices in my database.
I am pulling out #price# from a query.
if I use prices as a , b, c, d, ...
can I use some sort of set function to establish prices to be displayed
so if an item has a price code of "a" in the database it will display $22.00
if it is "b" then it will display $26.00
etc...
Or does this need to be done via a cfif statement and if so how would I do
it
Thank you for any help you can provide
