Am I missing something here?
Try this
<cfset fred = structNew()>
<cfset fred["001"] = "freddy">
<cfloop collection="#fred#" item="idx">
<cfoutput>#idx# #fred[idx]#</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
Then try this
<cfset 001 = "freddy">
<cfoutput>#001#</cfoutput>

By it's simplest definition, a structure keyname is a variable name. The
same rules apply to keynames that apply to variable names, and for the same
reasons.

What is the reasoning that you can't use integers as keys of structures? I
understand that arrays might serve this purpose. However, if I am throwing
the results of a DB query into a complex data structure, I would like the
use the primary key values, which are often not consecutive, as the
reference point to the data.
