Stefan,

I haven't run the following code, so apologies in advance for any syntax
errors, but it shows the principle of what I do. Someone else might be
able to come up with something shorter and more efficient, but this
example explains what is going on. 

<!--- Build the table --->
<table border="0">
        <cfoutput query="myQuery">
        <~--- if it's not the last record --->
        <cfif myQuery.currentRow NEQ myQuery.RecordCount>
                <!--- check if it's odd or even --->
                <cfif myQuery.currentRow mod 2 NEQ 0>
                        <!--- it's odd, display a new row ---> 
                        <tr><td>#myQuery.value#</td>
                <cfelse>
                        <!--- it's even, end the row --->
                        <td>#myQuery.value#</td></tr>                   
                </cfif>
        <!--- if it is the last record --->
        <cfelse>
                <!--- check if it's odd or even --->
                <cfif myQuery.currentRow mod 2 NEQ 0>
                        <!--- it's odd, span the whole row --->
                        <tr><td>#myQuery.value#</td><td>&nbsp;</td></tr>
                <cfelse>
                        <!--- it's even, just finish the row as normal
--->
                        <td>#myQuery.value#</td></tr>
                </cfif>
        </cfif> 
        </cfoutput>
</table>

HTH,
Kay.
