User: pwp69 sanaullah73, Thank you for the reply.

In the first 'ehFirst' that calls the
other 'ehSecond' I am using the requestCollection and in fact it works as you
describe... if I set the returning value to an rc.var in ehSecond.

... if I
do the following in ehSecond.getUserData

var arrUserData = ArrayNew(1);
...
code to create user data array...

rc.arrUserDate = arrUserData;
</cfscript>
</cffunction>

I can use rc.arrUserDate in the ehFirst. All well
in good!

On the other hand if I try to do this from ehFirst.dspUsers:
rc.arrUserData = runEvent("ehSecond.getUserData");

where in
ehSecond.getUserData I have something like:

var arrUserData = ArrayNew(1);
... code to create user data array...

return arrUserDate;

</cfscript>
</cffunction>

I don't get the value returned.

Can you give me an example
where I would want to return a value?

Thx again,
