I think I remember running in to it once before, but I cannot find it again. It seems like the query builder in SQL was more advanced than ColdFusion's as well. Also, is there a way to use a SQL variable in a Date function? Below is an example of what I am trying to do: DECLARE @DatePart varchar(10) SELECT @DatePart = 'dd' SELECT DateAdd(@DatePart, 5, GetDate()) When I run this I get the following error message: "Invalid parameter 1 specified for dateadd."
