Try using
<CFIF IsDate(myquery.datefield)>
#dateformat(myquery.datefield, 'mm/dd/yyyy')#
<CFELSE>
Output Words
</CFIF>
I'm pretty sure that No, N/A and Now won't evaluate to a date using that
function. You'll have to try this as I've not tested it.

Subject: date field
I have a query that returns a field that is either a date or N/A or No or
Now.
I want it to output the words if there is words and if there isnt then do a
dateformat on the date. How can I do this?
