Are you truly testing for an empty string, or are you trying to test for
NULL?

Also you might need to add in a AND
Tim,
I'm not entirely clear on where you're testing for empty fields,
whether it is in the SQL in your query, or whether you are checking
the field after the query has returned. So here's my 2 cents:
If it's inside the SQL, you can't compare the field name to an empty
string with IS NOT, you

Tim you can try 'IS NOT NULL' which tests for completely empty field
values in a table if this is what you are trying to test?

You need to use single quotes '' to delimit strings.

Tim,
the problem is, that you use double quotes instead of single quotes...

I'm guessing as it's a SQL error and has a where clause then it is in the SQL !
Also for the length test in CF, I would go for len(tim(variableName)
(whether you put 'GT 0' after this test is the subject of another
recent thread ;-) )

I don't think you can do equality (inequality) comparisons on a text
field in TSQL or ANSI SQL. You can do LIKE comparisons.
I found what was causing the problem and maybe someone can explain why -
-the field was originally set as a text field... I changed it to nvarchar
and the error went

Inequality works just fine for MS SQL Server TSQL for versions 2000 and

Yeah, I was pretty sure too, but thought maybe things had changed
since MS SQL 2000. In any case, in SQL 2000, it fails with:
text, ntext, and image data types cannot be compared or sorted, except
when using IS NULL or LIKE operator.
Is this still the case with MS SQL 2005?

Can someone point me to a tutorial/manual that will help me get the
following? I've done it before, but cannot for the life of me remember
the _right_ way to do this in one query.
table has recID (unique), itemID (not unique) and sequence number.
How do I write a select to only return records
I think this would work in Oracle at least and probably in a lot of
other DMBS (probably not MySQL) - note this is untested.
SELECT *
FROM MyTable T
WHERE SEQUENCENUMBER = (
Select MAX (SEQUENCENUMBER)
FROM MyTable
WHERE ITEMID = T.ITEMID
)

Thanks. Duh. I knew it had to be easier than I was making it.
I got it working with an inner join on a subquery, but did not think
it was the easiest solution.
Thanks,
