I normally don't work in ColdFusion but there's a FTP process at work I have to create a report for with the only option right now being a ColdFusion 8 server. This FTP feed has a few issues (trash too). So, I make the query and then I need to convert some of the string values during the output to do some math. Before that: How do I tell if a field in the output loop: is not blank or null, is string that can be converted into a valid number, and is not 0? Is there a simple way of doing this w/o a lot of if statements? Thanks!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
