I have been using years old code for newsletter mailings. My
task today is to upgrade my emailer which sends out about 34k of
email.
I have a simple flat file table of subscribed users that I use to
populate the mailer via a <cfquery>.
The key fields are:
#Firstname# #Lastname# #Email#
All fields: VALUES ('#TITLE#', '#FIRSTNAME#', '#LASTNAME#',
'#SUFFIX#', '#EMAIL#')
My task is to concatenate them for the format "DisplayName"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I don't want to run into problems with brackets or surrounds "("
as thousands of my entries have nicknames
bracketed by ( xxx ), eg:
Firstname: James F. (Jack)
Lastname: Johnson, Jr. LTC USA (Ret)
===
Q: Can I wrap the field nickname brackets with quote marks for
the mailer and not cause problems with
CFMX 7 ?
Q: I have a lot of Dpt of Defense names or other governmental
names that have names that are quite complex. Sure all of you
have traveled that path, eg: Vencill, Beverly Ms. USASMDCK, CIV
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Will comma's inside the wrapper create any problems?
