I want to query a spread sheet and get the first letter of each school
Display this as an a-z acroos the top
Then display the school names that correspond with the first letter in the
list

Something like b,c,d,f,g,r,s,u, and then Bakers Lane, Bedford Boys, Bulging
Girls etc......

I have this

<cfquery name="select_az" datasource="schoolsBudget">
      SELECT DISTINCT LEFT(schoolName,1) AS schoolFirstLetter
      FROM "table$"
      ORDER BY LEFT(schoolName,1)
</cfquery>

<cfoutput query="Select_az">
<a href="getdata.cfm?letter=#schoolFirstLetter#">#schoolFirstLetter#</a>
</cfoutput>

<cfquery name="q_getSchools" datasource="schoolsBudget">
      SELECT schoolName
      FROM "table$"
      WHERE DISTINCT LEFT(schoolName,1) eq #schoolFirstLetter#
</cfquery>

<cfoutput query = "q_getSchools">
#schoolName#
</cfoutput>

Error in second query schoolFirstLetter not defined ...... ?
