Hi Mike, Sounds like you need to pass the 3 dates into your UDF as arguments..
Eg: mikesFunction(date1,date2,date3) Then you can refer to these dates in your udf and Apply your psuedo code logic, then return the relevant Value.

I have a need to write a UDF (or another concise way to use functionality) to do the following: I have a session.auth.lastlogin field in the session vars to tell me when the user was last here, and I have a field Dateadded and Dateupdated in every document, and I want to put a little "NEW" graphic or "UPDATED" graphic next to each article in a documents list if it's been added or changed since the user was last here. Also at the head of the document when the user looks through the site. SO it's going to be used often. I want to be able to put in the code something like this: <cfif Isnew(docID)><img src="new.gif"></cfif> #documents.title# How would I write a UDF to tell CF whether to add a "new.gif" or "updated.gif" or have no graphic (if the document is unchanged since the user was last here)? I have been reading up on writing UDFs, but none seem to show me how to include both the session variable and the document ID in the functionality here.
