BINGO!!!!  The ascii was the trick.  Glad you mentioned it.  I never
seem to see the simple solution.


I ended up doing this.  Since my records will never include any other
characters this works like a charm.


<cfparam name="search" default="">


<cfloop
  index = "i"
  from = "97"
  to = "122"
  step = "1">  
<cfoutput><a href=""
</cfloop>


<cfif len(search)>
<CFQUERY NAME="temp" DATASOURCE="#dsn#">
SELECT      *
FROM         name
where name like '#search#%'
</CFQUERY>
<br><br>
<cfoutput query="temp">
#name#<br>
</cfoutput>
</cfif>

I'd probably use the ASCII values of the letters to easily move up/down
the alphabet.
