Good question Scott, the recordcount of qResults will always be 1. FYI,
adding the [1] worked!
Thanks!

In my database I have the fields material1, material2, material3,
I know you said you tried evaluate but in this case it would seem to be the way to go.
What was the output? Did you get the syntax wrong? Why is it that evaluate didn't
work for you?
Assuming there will always be at least one material
[psuedocode - you fill in the cf tags]
sql = insert
The problem you are having is because of the database structure. Those
materials fields need to be in a different table with another field that
relates to the project. Any time you have a 1 to Many relationship like
these 20 materials to 1 project, it cries out for two tables.
Here is some
evaluate is the least of your problems. lets start with the database. it is
not normalized. read : http://www.swynk.com/friends/putnam/normarticle.asp
for a better explanation. basically, whenever you find yourself making
column names that end with a number, you have a non-normalized table
How about
cfset thelist =
cfloop from=1 to=3 index=id
cfset thelist = ListAppend(thelist, Evaluate(form.fieldnum#id#))
/cfloop

yes you can do it. i use Evaluate() with dynamic values all the time.
try removing the from #id#. if that doesn't work (it should), try
something like:
cfset thelist =
cfloop from=1 to=3 index=id
cfset tempvalue = form.fieldnum#id#
cfset thevalue = Evaluate(tempvalue)

I want to dynamically create a variable name based upon a url variable.
First I set up a couple of strings:
CFSET qs = 'q'
CFSET qn = #Insert(url.q, qs, 1)#
Where q is a number from 1-37 passed via url variable. Let's say that
url.q is 7. Then qn is 'q7'.
So I query
You're trouble is you're not using the evaluate() function (and you're
using # gratuitously :).
cfset varname = evaluate("form.id" x)
This will now be the value of from.id1 instead of the string "form.id1"
(through whatever). There are other ways to handle this as well.
One
cfset rs = SetVariable("choice" count, blah)
Does rs have any special meaning or does it not matter?
No, it's a dummy variable. It stands for "return string". In fact, as has
been pointed out before, you could omit the left side of the CFSET, and it
would still work:

Of those two, I'd recommend the second, simply because it will be
supported
in future versions of CF, while the first one may not be.
However, you might consider using a

There's also the SetVariable() function that can be used to do the same thing (check
the docs). I'm not sure there's much of an advantage to either way of doing it. I
believe the above example only works with CF4 and up, while
