Can't pass a query out of a custom tag

[waterworker]

I am attempting to extract a query from a custom tag. I am passing several
variables into a custom tag using CFMODULE. I then run a query based upon the
variables submitted to the custom tag. I would like to then pass the query
back to the caller page. Is this possible? I can pass a string, or I can run
through a loop and create a list or array and then pass that back, but I
haven't found a way to pass the query back to the caller. Note: my company
runs ColdFusion 5 because we are still using Oracle 8, otherwise I would use
cfcomponent. Thanks for any help.

doing something like <cfset caller.myquery = myquery> doesn't work? if not, you can always use the request scope: cfset request.myquery = myquery.

That did it. I over-thought and over-coded.

Thanks a lot.
