ListToArray(list [, delimiters ])

ArrayToList; Chapter 5, "Using Arrays and Structures," in ColdFusion MX Developer's Guide

ColdFusion ignores empty list elements; thus, the list "a,b,c,,,d" has four elements.

ColdFusion treats each character in the delimiters parameter as a separate delimiter. Therefore, if the parameter is ",+" ColdFusion will break the list at either a comma or a plus sign.

<h3>ListToArray Example</h3>
<!--- Find a list of users who wrote messages --->
<cfquery name = "GetMessageUser" datasource = "cfdocexamples">
SELECT Username, Subject, Posted
FROM  Messages
</cfquery>
<cfset myList = ValueList(GetMessageUser.UserName)>
<p>My list is a list with <cfoutput>#ListLen(myList)#</cfoutput>
 elements.
<cfset myArrayList = ListToArray(myList)>
<p>My array list is an array with <cfoutput>#ArrayLen(myArrayList)#
 </cfoutput> elements.
