Before I go off and write a new wheel, does anyone know of a CF/Flex-y
solution that will allow users to enter a series of tests, then print out /
email those tests (and any sub steps etc.) to give to someone else to perform
and sign off ?

I'd swear they are as they look very familiar and probably have been on
other tests I have seen.

IMHO, look at all your SELECT * queries, replace a couple of them with

A good example of this is when you want to display n records among
"total nb of records".
Some databases allow you to set limits on the records to be returned.
