So this example was meant to show how to protect variables inside the method? If I follow correctly, you created a variable scoped to the 'var' scope (named "myQuery"), then set the variable equal to the value of the Query? Does this mean that, if I follow what you say below... > ANY variable created inside a method should be var scoped (unless you > want it to exists outside the method). Don't forget things like > <cfquery> create values, ditto for cfdirectory, etc. ...that normally, a query object that would be created, as a result of performing a query, are now only available to that method (since you scoped it 'var') and as soon as the object is no longer being used, the variable 'disappears' as part of the whole CFC garbage collection? Is it garbage collection? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
