It's necessary, but I don't think that makes it a "good thing". The intricacies of ColdFusion variable scoping within functions and particularly within CFC functions are pretty convoluted. And though I don't mind initializing variables in other languages, having to initialize variables in this one place in ColdFusion is very idiosyncratic. It's because of this that people forget to scope their query variables. This all becomes even more glaringly apparent when teaching people ColdFusion. -ben ---------------------------------------------------------- You are subscribed to cfcdev.
