The scope can be applied to all types: simple and complex.
to declare a local variable:
<cfset variables.Fname = "Sam">
<!---<cfset Fname = "Sam"> is a local variable too--->
if you want  a structure you have to create it first
<cfset variables.stNames = structNew ()>
<cfset variables.stNames["Fname"] = "Sam">
