That worked, Thanks Dave. Are the single quotes always required?
Ideally, what I would like to do is display the value if it is less than 25,
but if it is greater take the left 25 characters and append three dots:
<cfif len('[value]') LTE 25>[value]<cfelse>left('[value]',25)...</cfif>
Does the formatting component handle something like this?
