So all it comes down to then is preference. Although I do second Yuliang's comment that using an array might be better design.

Re: Using CFLoop to Define Variables
design wise, would you be better putting those in an array instead of seperate variables? ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:310752 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
RE: Using CFLoop to Define Variables
Jeanmarie,
Another way is like this:
Or for more cfscript purists:
loop here... {
setVariable("SC"&x,listElement);
}
Regarding : Since this is an 'evaluation',
and I have heard that 'evaluations' cost more performance wise than using a
setVariable() with a concatenated variable name, I prefer to use the first
method I indicated above. However, I can't confirm this performance issue,
although maybe someone else on the list has done some performance testing
with 'evaluations' and can comment on that.
