-----Original Message----- From: James Holmes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 17 August 2006 06:56 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Array Syntax This is easier to understand if you don't use evaluate(). Refer to the form variables directly. The form scope is a struct, so StructKeyExists will tell you if a particular form var is there. <cfif StructKeyExists(FORM,"Astockid" & i)>... Also, you can refer to it in struct notation: <cfoutput>FORM["Astockid" & i]</cfoutput> etc. On 8/17/06, Jenny Gavin-Wear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Alan, > > Thanks for the reply.
