RE: [ cf-dev ] Structure or Array?

[Dave Phipps]

I am doing a number of different queries that all return similar results 
and I was just looking at ways of merging the results.  But there are 
always several ways to skin a cat and I have now stuck with the queries but 
doing the output in a different way.

Cheers

Dave

hassle of converting it to something else for little/no benefit?
if its needs to be reordered then you could just QofQ it...

I guess it depends what you want to do with it.
