Will your two lists always consist of those same fields? State, City, County, Zip? If so, that'll make it easier... First, create a variable to hold your output comments, just a blank var. Do a loop from 1 to the length of either of those lists (i.e. ListLen(List1)). Since those lists are comma delimited, that'll be fine. Let's say you use the index var 'pos' on this loop. Then compare ListLast(ListGetAt(List1, pos), ":") to ListLast(ListGetAt(List2, pos), ":"). Note we're using : as a delimeter for these mini-lists. If the two values different, then use ListAppend to append to your output variable list: ListGetAt(List1, pos) & " changed to " & ListGetAt(List2, pos) That should do it. --Scott ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| 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 Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
