Dave,
The solution looping over list is working, but I'm not getting what you're saying
about looping over the structure. I cant seem to access the form as a structure. I'm
on CFServer 4.0. Could that be the problem? Special feature of 4.5?
Thanks
Willy

Use the Evaluate function to determine the value of a variable whose name
you don't know until runtime:
#test#: #Evaluate("Form." & test)#
In addition, rather than looping over the FIELDNAMES string, you might be
better served by looping over the Form structure itself:
<cfoutput>
<cfloop collection="#Form#" item="i">
#i#: #Evaluate("Form." & i)#
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
This way, if you have any duplicate field names, such as you'd get with
checkbox arrays, you'll output the fieldname once, followed by a
comma-delimited list of selected values.
