Mark, I just did a search on IIF,DE and Evaluate.... Man.. Its all over the place in the code.. A few hundred Templates as well.. Very badly organized code.

I always get a "variable not found or variable misspelled error" However i am not able to replicate the error with simple test code.. Do you have the source code to http://dev.cfwebtools.com/showInsideText.cfm Or do you have some test code? Appreciate your help. Thanks, Joe Eugene ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark A.
