OH!  I should really try to figure stuff out on my own first... Well...
it's early.

Here's the story:  We're using MySQL and we happen to be storing this
column as a BLOB.  Binary object.  If I set it to medium text, it works
fine...

I'm sure I'll be running into some more stuff!

Ok, we just moved our development platform from 5.0 to MX.  This will
probably be a first-of-many kind of post.  First error we come across
is
this:  

ByteArray objects cannot be converted to strings.  
 
  
The Error Occurred in /web/live/faculty_staff/index.cfm: line 13
 
11 : WHERE articleID = #variables.article#
12 : </cfquery>
13 : <cfset truncate = find(".",qGetArticle.Text,"150")>
14 : 
15 : 

 
I'm trying to truncate what *used to be* a text string out of my
database.  Is there now some .toString() function I need to use, or
something?
