I have never really used iif before, I was aware it existed but didn't really see a good place for it. Until today. =)
Check this out: dollarformat(iif(Cost, cost, 0)) That says, evaluate cost as a Boolean, if its true (anything but 0 or null) then return cost, otherwise return 0 (so the dollarFormat does not break) This is great instead of a <cfif> around the whole thing. Kinda cool =) Chris ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Deploy Web Applications Quickly across the enterprise with ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2 Free Trial http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=RVJU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:273435 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
