Updating multiple records at once.

Hello,

I have a number of checkboxes on a field all have the same name: addedToSage. When multiple checkboxes are selected the output appears like this:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 etc etc

Those are the ID's of the records I have outputted on the page.

What i'm trying to do is update each record by the ID listed in the outputted variable when someone hits submit.

So essentially what I need to do is this:

<cfquery name="updateRecords" dataSource="#dsl#">

UPDATE SET

addedToSage = "true"

WHERE ID = #FORM.addedToSage#

</cfquery>

This doesn't work. So is it a case of using listLen and establishing the length of the addedToSage string and then using a loop to update each record in turn?

Thanks for you time

Chris
