Can I ask you why you're not doing this in SQL? It'll do it a lot quicker
than you can in CF...
In it's simplest terms...
<cfquery name="qcfGetContactNames" datasource="FSLibrary_Dev">
SELECT t2.mainContactName, t2.mainContactTitle, t2.mainContactAreaCode,
t2.mainContactPhone, t2.mainContactFaxAreaCode, t2.mainContactFax,
t2.mainContactEmail
FROM dbo.tblIndustryEvents as t2, dbo.tbl_EP_EventContacts as t1
WHERE t1.EventContactFirstName+'
'+t1.EventContactLastName=t2.mainContactName
ORDER BY t2.mainContactName
</cfquery>
This query will give you all entries in "tblIndustryEvents" that are also in
"tbl_EP_EventContacts" - if you want entries that AREN'T in both tables,
then it'll be different SQL...
