The database server is "SQLBase" by Gupta. I tried PHONE## and it works. Thanks,

Also, can you SELECT PHONE# FROM TABLE1 ??? If so, then that's not your issue. If you can't SELECT PHONE#, try this: SELECT PHONE## FROM TABLE1 See if that works. Dave -----Original Message----- From: Perez, Percy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 20, 2005 10:35 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFQuery and SQLBase - alternative to using asterisk Hello, I am having problems doing a simple SQL select. When I enter: SELECT * from TABLE1, I get an error message that the asterisk is an invalid character. However, if I used dreamweaver to view data, I get all the columns and records. If I do a select listing some of the fields it works. Also, the original database creators added a "PHONE#" field. Of course the # sign is not well liked by coldfusion. I trying using a bracket to escape the special character but no go. Unfortunately, I can not alter the table since it is provided by ADP (Payroll Company) and there is a GUI interface provided by them. Any suggestions? Thank you in advanced.
