You are welcome-- I personally would not have gotten anywhere without
groups, I am beginning to realize that it is very important for these types
of questions to be answered and followed through.

Once they are indexed they are very helpful to anyone else who has the same
questions.

I cant count the times I had a distinct question and Google has led me to
the answer in minutes because a group actually discussed it and were not
short in the replies.

There is so much benefit in the community posting and blogging, no matter
how simple the reply or arcane the info is, input from multiple sources is
priceless.

Never underestimate the power of a good CFDUMP-- Alan Holden


Jason, cfdump is your friend, when in doubt , dump it-- You can dump almost
anything.

No matter where you are in the execution path, weather it is in a cfc, in
the middle of some long line of code, or in a template--

Just a simple--

<cfdump var="#myvarToDump#">
<cfabort>

--Will stop the process and provide you plenty of information.

Also, take some time to learn how the step debugger works in cfbuilder or
eclipse, I cant tell you how much that can help you debug complicated code,
especially if the code is not yours and you do not fully understand it.

Setting a breakpoint, then testing, then moving the breakpoint, or stepping
through lines of code gives you tremendous insight into how this awesome
scripting language called CFML works.
