I have an idea.
List Functions.
I'm assuming a bit, so let me know if I'm wrong (and I'm sure that others
have a less cumbersome way to deal with your problem too, so don't think
what I'm saying is at all the only way).
I'm assuming that Quantity looks something like this: 1,2,3,4,5
And Item number looks somethiing like this: F004,F005,F006,F007
And F004 has a quantity of 1; F005 has a quantity of 2 etc.
Take a look at this code... I've mocked up the same functionality.... set a
counter, incremented the counter while looping over one of my lists and then
used that counter to retreive a list element at the poisitoin represented by
the counter.
<cfset list1 = "1,2,3,4">
<cfset list2 = "mom,pop,dad,sis">
<cfset counter = 1>
<cfloop index="qty" list="#list1#">
<cfoutput>
Counter = #counter# Qty = #qty#
list2 = #ListGetAt(list2, counter)#<br>
</cfoutput>
<cfset counter = counter + 1>
</cfloop>
Output looks like:
Counter = 1 Qty = 1 list2 = mom
Counter = 2 Qty = 2 list2 = pop
Counter = 3 Qty = 3 list2 = dad
Counter = 4 Qty = 4 list2 = sis
So all you'd have to do is loop over your quantity, find the representative
list element and then input both into the db via your query, which is of
course nested in the loop.

|Hi Patricia,
|
|No errors, just not sure how to write the syntax to make it work. The
|problem I'm having is inputing a quanity in a form that was
|generated by a
|loop, then on the next page updating a table where the
|Quantity is paired
|with Item_Number.So far I can produce what I need in two
|separate places.
|Don't know how to combine the two.
|
|Note - F004 should have Quantity of 1
|F065 Quantityof 2
|A400 Quantity of 3
|
|ACTION PAGE TOP:
|<cfloop index="The_Item_Number" list="#ITEM_NUMBER#" delimiters=",">
|#The_Item_Number#<br>
|</cfloop>
|
|<cfloop index="TheQuantity" list="#QUANTITY#" delimiters=",">
| UPDDATE BOM
| SET QUANTITY = '#TheQuantity#'
| WHERE DRAWING_NUMBER = '#DRAWING_NUMBER#' AND ITEM_NUMBER = ???
|</cfloop>
|
|ACTION PAGE DISPLAY:
|F004
|F065
|A400
|UPDDATE BOM SET QUANTITY = '1' WHERE DRAWING_NUMBER = 3000-04
|
|UPDDATE BOM SET QUANTITY = '2' WHERE DRAWING_NUMBER = 3000-04
|
|UPDDATE BOM SET QUANTITY = '3' WHERE DRAWING_NUMBER = 3000-04
