Not entirely sure what you're trying to do, but why not use DeleteClientVariable("EmailAddress") to delete that particular client variable? This has the added benefit (albeit minimal) of one less client variable CF needs to return with every page request. Then just do an IsDefined("client.EmailAddress") to check for that particular client variable when you need to. Alternatively, you can indeed just do <cfset client.EmailAddress = ""> in your code to "null" out the value for that client variable, and then just do a <cfif Len(client.EmailAddress)> to check for a value. > >brain fartage on a stinkin cold rainy Wednesday!!!!!!!!
