<!--- This example shows the use of QueryNew --->
<html>
<head>
<title>QueryNew Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<H3>QueryNew Example</H3>
<P>We will construct a new query with two rows:
<cfset myQuery = QueryNew("name, address, phone")>
<!--- make some rows in the query --->
<cfset newRow  = QueryAddRow(MyQuery, 2)>
<!--- set the cells in the query --->
<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(myQuery, "name", "Fred", 1)>
<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(myQuery, "address", "9 Any Lane", 1)>
<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(myQuery, "phone", "555-1212", 1)>
<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(myQuery, "name", "Jane", 2)>
<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(myQuery, "address", "14 My Street", 2)>
<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(myQuery, "phone", "588-1444", 2)>
<!--- output the query --->
<cfoutput query = "myQuery">
<PRE>#name#  #address#  #phone#</PRE>
</cfoutput>  
To get any item in the query, we can output it individually
<cfoutput>
<P>Jane's phone number: #MyQuery.phone[2]#
</cfoutput>
