you can only use very basic syntax in QofQ as it is not really SQL or running against the database server. It is just CFML extracting a subset of data from an existing query.
If you want to do complex searches then you will need to do it by looping over the query and comparing each row. Or simply run your query directly against the database instead of using QofQ On Thu, Nov 8, 2012 at 4:07 PM, Nathan Chen <nathan.c...@cu.edu> wrote: > > Matt, sorry I wasn't clear.
