Description:
Updated so List parameter doesn't conflict with native List function.
Returns all values from a list that matches the supplied prefix. This version strips the CR off the end of the result list. For reference, Mike's original revision is included as a comment in the body of the CF above. There is an interesting thread on fmforums.com called "Piggy backing on a CF input parameter" if you are learning about CFs and and care to read a technical discussion about CFs.
