    As Dan suggested, some_variable_name.

    Sorry i framed the question wrongly.

    We are storing all complex objects in a structure and sending it to some other function.

    Once the function recieves the structure as paramater , it loops through the structure and it will isolate the query objects(using the isquery function)

    But for some debugging info i need to identify the query object names that was isolated during the isquery function.

    And I think you are not understanding what everybody is telling you.

    Whatever you pass to the isQuery() function parameter IS the name of the query record set object!  There is no hidden name.  If at one time the query record set was stored under a different variable name before it was passed into the complex structure you are examining has no relevance and stands a good chance of not even existing anymore.

    Isn't it the value of your variable?

    No not the value of the variable.

    For ex:

    <CFQUERY NAME="check">

    ....

    I need to find the query object name. Like when i check for ifQuery(<object name>) , it should return the query object name. According to the example it should return "check"

    Sounds like someone needs to read the cfml reference manual.  I'll go first

    It is misleading isn't it.  It doesn't say that the function will either return true or false, but that's what actually happens.
