CFQuery - metadata

You learn something new everyday! I Just discovered that in Coldfusion 7 you can get query infomation (metadata) by adding result = 'aVariable' to the cfquery tag.

for example:

<cfquery name = "aQuery" datasource = "aDataSource" result="aVariable">
select * from aTable
</cfquery>
<cfdump var="#aVariable#">
The resulting dump shows:
CACHED (boolean)
COLUMNLIST (the names of the columns returned)
EXECUTIONTIME (time to execute query ms)
RECORDCOUNT (rows returned)
SQL (the sql that was executed)

I use it mainly to see the sql that is executed from dynamically created sql.
