This is a bit weird, but sorta cool, too...

I like putting SQL actions into a separate /SQL directory.
Normally, I invoke these through a CFINCLUDE.
One on my SQL queries requires an attributes variable to be set.
I tried calling this query through a CFMODULE
<CFMODULE template="/sql/qry_squid.cfm">
and then using the returned set as follows:
<CFLOOP query="qry_squid"> (I always name my queries the same as the
filename minus .cfm)

Well, this didn't work.

BuTtTtTt...
<CFLOOP query="request.qry_squid"> works great!

So therefore, (attempting to sound intelligent here...) 
IF you invoke a query via CFMODULE, the query results are available through
the request scope as request.(query name)

This is pretty cool, IMHO. Quite a boon for request scope fanatics...
