My advice would be to use a container. These are specifically designed
for this purpose. If you decide to do so, you may want to take a look
at my mgs_container object which you can find on my web pages:
http://www.mpimet.mpg.de/~schultz.martin/idl/
This extends the IDL_Container functionality by allowing object access
by name.
Cheers,
Martin
