Nope, have to use CFTRY..CFCATCH to do it. Rather a PITA, but such is life.
Two potential alternatives:
1) don't use an array, use a struct. This works well if you don't
have to fill in the gaps.
2) prepopulate the entire array with 'blanks', and the overwrite the
indexes that have real values. This only works if you know how large
the array is in advance.
