I wasn't commenting on your lack of scope, Bobby. :-) I've got some of the worst habits, so no judgement over here. 't'was a bad joke. Comment was more about explicit and implicit coding, and the DRY idea. While looping over a query, does everyone do daQuery["theCol"][ daQuery.currentrow] when they reference their fields? Seems the only safe way of doing it, but MAN does it make stuff hard to read. Take this example: someVar = ((x * y) / z) * someVar; variables.someVar = ((theQuery["x"][theQuery.currentrow] * theQuery["y"][ theQuery.currentrow]) / theQuery["z"][theQuery.currentrow]) * variables.someVar; Zaphod showed the "better way" (a short "pointer"), but still, here you've got Adobe saying explicit scoping is best practice, yet no examples are scoped, or, if so, it's like 1 out of 500 ;). It makes it hard for a newb to follow best practice when it's not really followed in the docs. On-list, pseudo is fine and dandy, but not in livedoc examples, if ya ask me. That increases the divide 'tween CFers. It's like you have to already know, to know. But implicit and explicit is something all languages have to deal with, which is more of what I was getting at. I'm not sure which is really "better", it seems like there are parts of both in everything. Bleh. More clarity from the denstar, eh? Pearls, real pearls. :-)) ~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:251158 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Re: How would I code this line?
Why shouldn't you need to scope? I think you should always scope - even variable.

Rick, You can't use cfif within a cfset like that.
