I'd say the datatype for quarter is not an int or number - trye using single quotes:
where quarter = '1' -----Original Message----- From: David Douglas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 6:27 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Data Mismatch and Looping Distinct Results Morning All, 2 issues are bugging (hehe) me on an overnight basis now. my code: <cfquery name="Sales" datasource="spattest"> SELECT DISTINCT SalespersonID, SalesAmount Quarter FROM tblSales Where Quarter = 1 <!---OR I want it to say Quarter = #Form.ffQuarter# so users can choose the quarter to view---> </cfquery> that query is coming back with: ODBC Error Code = 22005 (Error in assignment) [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Data type mismatch in criteria expression. SQL = "SELECT DISTINCT SalespersonID, SalesAmount, Quarter FROM tblSales Where Quarter = 1" BUT when I drop the Where clause it works fine. !!!!!!! The other thing was more of a recommendation on how I should get a total for each Salesperson ID from query results CFLOOP perhaps?? Thanks for all the assistance this list has always provided me with, -Dave _________________________ _________________________ ____________________ Get Your Own Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation · $99/Month · Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusionb FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists ______________________________________________________________________ Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation · $99/Month · Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusiona FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
