My first tag is not going according to plan.

I'm attempting to reuse this code :

<cfoutput>
        <cfquery name="getOfficeLocs" datasource="mydata">
                SELECT YOfficeID AS SelectedOfficeID, OfficeName
                FROM    YesOffices
                WHERE   Active = 1
                ORDER BY OfficeName 
        </cfquery>
        <cfquery name="getSelectedOffice" datasource="mydata">
                SELECT YOfficeID AS SelectedOfficeID, OfficeName
                FROM YesOffices
                WHERE Active = 1
                        and Yofficeid=#SelectedOfficeID#
        </cfquery>
</cfoutput>

... which sets up for a dropdown menu.

I've saved this code as SelectOffices.cfm, and called it as <cf_selectoffices> - this 
is as
the CFMX reference manual suggests.

The problem seems to be the parameter. When I modify the call to
<cf_selectoffices SelectedOfficeID="#SelectedOfficeID#">
it falls over, pointing to an error on this line
"and Yofficeid=#SelectedOfficeID#"

So I went back to the book and followed the starter example, wihch simply
creates a file called date.cfm containing today's date, then calls <cf_date> from a
different program. This works. However, when I try to pass a parameter,
any parameter, using any of the methods in the book, it doesn't work (i.e
throws an error).

What am I missing here ?
