Re: 'nother loop problem
You can treat each column (field) as a one dimensional array, as in prerequisite.somefield[1] prerequisite.anotherfield[1] Be careful nesting loops in CF... if you try looping over one query inside a loop over another query, you may get some unexpected behavior. Using indexes in the inner loop may actually overcome the problem.

Now I have a new problem. I want to compare the results of one record set to those of another. I would like to refer to each record in one of the record sets by using the index of the loop. Is there an object naming convention in Cold Fusion where each record is named? For example, if my query is named "prerequisite", you can get the total number of records by referring to prerequisite.recordcount. Can you refer to each individual record in that record set with something like prerequisite.record.1, prerequisite.record.2, and so on? If I could refer to each record this way (sort of like an array?) then I could use something like #evaluate("prerequisite.record."#x#)# to achieve my goal.

RE: 'nother loop problem
You can refer to your results as queryname.column[index]. For example, if you had a query called qryMyStuff, and it contained two columns, MyId and MyName, you could refer to the contents of the name column of the first record as qryMyStuff.MyName[1].
