forgive me for not modifying this to show you only exactly what you need, but the following will show you pretty much how to get there:
<cfset variables.arResultsHeaders = ListToArray(variables.q.columnlist) /> <cfoutput> <table align="left" style="background-color:##fff;" <cfif variables.numCells lte variables.maxsortable>class="sortable"</cfif> id="queryResults"> <tr> <th> Row </th> <cfloop from="1" to="#arrayLen(variables.arResultsHeaders)#" index="i"> <th> #variables.arResultsHeaders[i]# </th> </cfloop> </tr> <cfloop from="1" to="#variables.q.recordCount#" index="k"> <tr> <th> #NumberFormat(k,"0000")# </th> <cfloop from="1" to="#arrayLen(variables.arResultsHeaders)#" index="j"> <td> #variables.q["#variables.arResultsHeaders[j]#"][k]# </td> </cfloop> </tr> </cfloop> </table> </cfoutput> where variables.q is the query. The line: #variables.q["#variables.arResultsHeaders[j]#"][k]# is your money maker. On 11/2/05, Justin D.
