Example
    <!--- This example shows how to use StructKeyList to list the keys
    in a structure. It uses StructNew function to create structure
    and fills it with information user enters in form fields. --->
    <!--- This section creates structure and checks whether Submit has been
    pressed.
    If so, code defines fields in the employee structure with what the
    user entered in the 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>

    <h3>StructKeyList Function</h3>
    <h3>Listing the Keys in the Employees Structure</h3>
    <p>This example uses StructNew function to create structure "employee" that
    supplies employee information. The fields are filled with the
    contents of the following form.</p>
    <p>After you enter employee information into structure, example uses
    <b>StructKeyList</b> function to list keys in structure.</p>
    <p>This code does not show how to insert information into a database.
    See cfquery for more information about database insertion.
