Minor comment, but I often will run an Update and a select in the same
CFQuery statement... This will return rows/recordcount (potentially).
ColdFusion doesn't know that this is happening as it is just sending the SQL
command to the Database. SQL is the only player that knows whether or not
rows will be returned, so CF has to be ready in case.

Sorry, I should have been more clear.  I meant that the return value
(queryname.recordCount) was not useful.  Not the count itself.
