Just a comment
Nice... but it will cause improper HTML if the query results are evenly
divisible by the var your're using to Mod with.... Here's the results of a
table generated with this forumula... notice the extra </tr><tr> combo. If
you needed to display these results in netscape.... well, I don't have
netscape on my computer anymore to check, but we all know how picky she is.
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>Carolynn</td>
<td>Dave</td>
<td>Linda</td>
<td>Aaron</td>
</tr> <tr>
</tr>
</table>
I remember having to do something similar myself, and I think I got it to
work and still generate proper html... but it was a mess. Worse I can't
remember how I did it now to whip out for comparison.

|You can just modify the number 4 after the MOD
|and change the yourquery to whatever you query name
|is and of course the var to your own var.
|
|<table>
| <tr>
| <cfoutput query="yourquery">
| <td>#var#</td>
| <cfif yourquery.CurrentRow MOD 4 IS 0>
| </tr> <tr>
| </cfif>
| </cfoutput>
| </tr>
|</table>
