Rob thank you that did work. I don't have any documentations on CFMX 7 at the moment except for what I googled and what I did google were very vague.
Where did you pull this info from? Thanks again, Ron Mast Truth Hardware Webmaster 507-444-4693 ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Gatti Sent: Wednesday, February 21, 2007 8:21 AM To: 'Dallas/Fort Worth ColdFusion User Group Mailing List' Subject: RE: [DFW CFUG] flash forms in mx 7 Since the text property of an input field is a string (you can check this using if(firstName.text instanceof String) Alert("true");) you can use the Flex String object methods. Try doing firstName.text.substr(0, 1) and lastName.text.substr(0, 7). Hope this works. Rob
