I am actually trying to use a string as a delimiter like #ListAppend(MyList, MyValue, 
"mystring")# .

If I do this:

<cfscript>
MyList="";
MyList=ListAppend(MyList, "Hello There", "mystring");
MyList=ListAppend(MyList, "Good Afternoon", "mystring");
</cfscript>

MyList is equal to: Hello TheremGood Afternoon

But if I do this:

<cfscript>
MyList=ValueList(queryName.ColumnName, "mystring");
</cfscript>

then MyList is then equal to:  Hello TheremystringGood Afternoon

Why do the List functions behave differently?  Is there any rules or such to go by 
when using delimiters?

BTW: I'm not trying to use "mystring" as a delimiter, I just want to use ", " (comma 
space) as a delimiter to output the list to the browser.

Is this what you are looking for? If you already have a list, you can change
the delimiter like so....

ListChangeDelims(#yourList#, "+")

Is there any known tricks to providing list delimiters to the List
functions?  Sometimes you can use a string as a delimiter, #ValueList()#,
and other times it will only allow you to use/accept the first character,
such as #ListAppend()#.  Any idears?
