Dynamic query name

Question

Hello,
I sure home someone can help me with this.
I am trying to run dynamic loops and am stumped with how to
call a variable name.
As you can see, calling the variable names just isnt going to
work out the way I am trying to do this. Can someone steer me in
the correct direction?
thanks,
Matt

That's appreciated. But it was not obvious that the omission
was deliberate and truthfully your code sample is confusing because
few of the variables and query names match up.
For example, you're storing a list of the ID's from the
"getnums" query here
........<cfset leaguelist=valuelist(getnums.id)>
Then you're looping through a 2nd query named "GetInfo".
Where does that query come from?
........<cfloop query="Getinfo">
Inside the loop the code references a 3rd query named
"getLeagues"
........<cfquery datasource="#my.dsn#"
name="get#getLeagues.id#">
Then a 4th query is used in the where clause
........Where leagueID='#Getinums.leagueid#'
So its unclear how many you have and which ones you're
actually using. Honestly, the cfloops seem like an over
complication. Unless you have another reason for using them, you
could probably do the same thing more simply by using one cfquery
with a JOIN and <cfoutput> with "group". That said, one
problem that jumps out at me is here
quote:
<cfloop from"1" to="#listlen(leaguelist)#" index="i">
<table>
<cfloop query="get#i#">
<cfif get#i# currentrow mod 2 eq 0>
The queries were named using #getLeagues.id#. So you must use
the
id value, not the list index #i#. Also, you don't need to
use the query name inside your query loop.
<cfloop list="#leagueList#" index="currentID">
<table>
<cfoutput query="get#currentID#">
<cfif currentrow mod 2 eq 0>
