Possibly. I couldn't get it to work and moved on to:

<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(MyQofQ, "FieldName", "#whatever#", RowVal)>

This works nicely if you change:

<cfoutput query="MyQofQ">

to

<cfloop from="1" to="#val(MyQofQ.recordcount)#" index="RowVal">

and make sure you change references to fields 
from:  MyQofQ.FieldName
to:    MyQofQ.FieldName[RowVal]

I suspect that if I resorted to chicken entrails it might be possible
to get QofQ working the way I want it to, but it seems determined to
make *me* work the way *it* wants to. Hopefully Blackstone will address
some of that.
