What actually happens is that the value that is assigned to Temp gets assigned the value "Goodbye" in this case. If you add #Hello# to your cfoutput then you would see "Hello Goodbye Goodbye"

What would the following CFML code output to a user? cfset Temp = "Hello" cfset x=SetVariable(Temp, "Goodbye") cfoutput #Temp# #Evaluate(Temp)# wouldn't it be Goodbye Goodbye since you're setting Temp to Goodbye before you output? thanks for any guidance. d ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
