I've been running CF8 since beta and if I return a straight query it is cast as an ArrayCollection with the dates as date objects, numbers as numbers and strings as strings. They all sort correctly too.
I know that doesn't help you figure out what's going with your problem but at least you know it is supposed to work (and does for me)... -----Original Message----- From: Rick Root [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 8:54 AM To: Flex Subject: Problem with returning a query So... back in the days of Coldfusion 7, when I returned a query to Flex with some numeric values in it, I was able to sort my datagrid columns by those values... total them, etc. I upgraded to Coldfusion 8 over the weekend, and someone reported yesterday So I did some debugging and noticed that those values are now strings, and they're being sorted as strings would be sorted.
