You could specify a list of table names and use ListFindNoCase(). Or you could come up with an automatic solution by using JDBC metadata (or if/when you switch the CF8, the CFDBINFO tag) to get the valid column names for the table and compare the incoming order by value to those. You'd probably want to do this once per table and cache the column names somewhere so you wouldn't have to do it on every request. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Enterprise web applications, build robust, secure scalable apps today - Try it now ColdFusion Today ColdFusion 8 beta - Build next generation apps Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:288644 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
