It is amazing how fast your FastTrack to CF class information comes flooding
into your mind once you ask a question that was covered in the class.
Anyway, thanks David and Jeremy for the information. It worked like a charm
once I changed them all to Client variables. And I was rather disappointed
that I could not attend the meeting. I had a prior engagement that I
absolutely could NOT get out of.
Thanks

<cfset Application.MyVar = "">,
and/or wait for the Application timeout,
or restart CF.
The reason that there is a special function for deleting Client variables
(DeleteClientVariable()) is that client variables are physcially written to
a location (be it the registry, a cookie, or other database), and due to the
way CF stores those client variables, there is no easy way to remove them.
Applications variables are stored in memory and therefore will die a natural
death when the a) the application times out or b) you restart CF.
Rather than check for the existence of a variable, it may be best to param
it and then check for a value (not "").
