private
function GetProp(Index: string): String;
procedure SetProp(Index: string; Value: string): String;
public
property Prop[Index: string]: String read GetProp write SetProp;
end;
The var Index can be anything you want, as long as its declared the same
throughout.
Then in your Get/Set code handle the lookup anyway you want, and just refer
to the property with Object.Prop['Something'];
