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 =)
