<h3>StructKeyArray Example</h3>
<h3>Extracting the Keys from the Employee Structure</h3>
<!-- Create structure. Check whether Submit was pressed. If so, define fields
in employee structure with user entries on form. ----->
<cfset employee = StructNew()>
<cfif Isdefined("Form.Submit")>
<cfif Form.Submit is "OK">
<cfset employee.firstname = FORM.firstname>
<cfset employee.lastname = FORM.lastname>
<cfset employee.email = FORM.email>
<cfset employee.phone = FORM.phone>
<cfset employee.company = FORM.company>
<cfelseIf Form.Submit is "Clear">
<cfset rc = StructClear(employee)>
</cfif>
</cfif>
<p> This example uses the StructNew function to create a structure called
"employee" that supplies employee info. Its fields are filled by
the form. After you enter employee information in structure, the
example uses StructKeyArray function to copy all of the keys from
the structure into an array. </p>
