Hi,
I have several data structures (xts structures).  I then have a list of the names of those objects.
I'd like to access the object by name.
For example:
foo1 <- as.xts(....)
foo2 <- as.xts(...)
foo3 <- as.xts(...)
structs <- c("foo1", "foo2", "foo3")
for (thisOne in structs){
	print(thisOne$colA)
}
The above fails.  Clearly I'm missing a step translating the name to the object.
Suggestions?
Thanks
