No. As Dave said, think of it is a bag.

Not at all! Watch this. <cfset a = arrayNew(1)> <cfset a[1] = structNew()> <cfset a[1].complexIs = AsComplexDoes> :) > So to recap, by saying that structures are there to simply > "store" keys why > is CF re-ordering the inserted keys even though I have entered the > information in the order I wanted - it works fine for items > 1-9 but not > afterwards.? > It's not changing the order. There is no order. Remove any thought of order when you think of structs. The 'order' you speak of is the date returned by StructKeyList or StructKeyArray. It just so happens this list is alpha ordered. ======================================================================= Raymond Camden, Principal Spectra Compliance Engineer for Macromedia Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM : morpheus "My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." - Yoda ______________________________________________________________________ Why Share?
