I've done something like this before, where fullField is the String
representation of the field (like field1.field2.field3) and item is the
top-level data object:
var split:Array = fullField.split(".");
var valueObj:Object = item;
for(var i:int=0; i<split.length; i++) {
valueObj = valueObj[split[i]];
}
