and then the Compare() checks if the lists are the same.

Brendan,
What would you use to for the sort order? These lists can be in
any order. Such as: 1,2,3,4,5 And 3,1,2,5,4
How would you compare these 2 lists using these functions?
Greg

You're looking for a match where both lists contain the same values, but
possibly in different orders right? I would try:
<cfset state_list = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8">
<cfset query_list = "9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2">
<cfif listlen(state_list) EQ listlen(query_list)>
<cfloop index="i" list="#state_list#">
<cfif NOT listcontains(query_list, i)>
Not A Complete Match<cfabort>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
Lists Match
<cfelse>
Not Same Length Match
</cfif>

Subject: Compare List
Will Compare(String1,String2) work to compare a list?
I have a Comma Delimited list of GUIDS (up to 50 for each state). That I
need to compare to a list GUIDS from a Query. If they match then return
true (1).
The GUIDS in the list may not be in the same order as the GUIDS from the
query.
Any ideas?
Rick
