>> <cfset variables.my_var = "query.column"> Am I setting my variable to the two words seperated by a period, query.column? or to a variable query.column? <<
The first. If you wanted to set myVar to a variable query.column, don't use quotes. (Either way, the period should be a _ or some such.) SO, <cfset variables.myVar = "query_column"> myVar = the string "query_column" <cfset variables.myVar = query_column> sets the variable variables.myVar to some other variable, namely, query_column if it exists and throws an error if it doesn't. -Craig Thomas ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
