I was wondering if anyone here could help me out. say I had a property 
that looked like this...

OBJECT.PROP = {"foo", {"bar", {"hello", "there"}, 
               "qwerty", {"quaz", {"poi", {"moo", "cows"}}}}};

and I had a verb that would return the numbers...
      {2, 4, 2, 2, 1}

so OBJECT.PROP[2][4][2][2][1] would be "moo".
How would I get another verb to find "moo" using those numbers without 
always having to have the same amount of numbers?

Please post up any ideas. Thanks alot.
