>As an object with an array property. It should have a this_access and this_assign method, which will somehow store the names of the objects in the array, and retrieve them by name. Thus when you mention oColl.items("shoe"), oColl_access will receive "shoe" as a parameter, and your code should find that "shoe" is the name of .items[5] and it should return items[5]. The additem method should take care of storing the names and indexes in an appropriate place.
