Have you tried
<cfset truncate = find(".",qGetArticle.Text[1],"150")>
There may have been a change in how CF is referencing the items in a query outside of
a CFOUTPUT or CFLOOP. Till now we've assumed that using a reference to the
queryname.columnname will always get us the first item. Maybe now we have to specify
the first item. Total speculation on my part till I can test it.
