Example

<!--- This example uses ListFind and ListFindNoCase to 

determine whether substring exists in a list --->

...

  <cfset temp = ListFindNoCase(myList, FORM.myString)>

  <cfif temp is 0>

    <H3>An employee with that exact last name was not found</H3>

  <cfelse>

    <cfoutput>

    <P>Employee #ListGetAt(ValueList(SearchEmpLastName.FirstName), temp)#

    #ListGetAt(ValueList(SearchEmpLastName.LastName), temp)#, of the

    #ListGetAt(ValueList(SearchEmpLastName.Department), temp)#

    Department, can be reached at

    #ListGetAt(ValueList(SearchEmpLastName.Phone), temp)#.

    <P>This was the first employee found under this case-insensitive

     last name search.

    </cfoutput>

  </cfif>

</cfif>

</cfif>
