Before the code snippet, PARAM the 'username' variable, defaulting it to some 
conspicuous like "start-username". Then try running it again and let us know 
what happens.

Subject: Creating randon username error

Hi guys,

Am getting a strage error. Running the code below, I get a value of
'INVALID' inserted into my username column (MSSQL) rather that something
like 'LIK2007'?

Can any one see what I may be doing worng?

<!--- set default username and password --->
<cfset valid_username = false>
                        
<cfloop condition="valid_username EQ true">
        <cfset username = trim(left(uCase(arguments.lname), 3)) &
randRange(1000, 9999)>
                <cfset getUser = getUser(username=username)>
                <cfif getUser.recordcount EQ 0>
                        <cfset valid_username = true>
                </cfif>
</cfloop>

Thanks heaps
Mike
