Ephen, Yes that is one of the great thing about collections you can wrap them up into elements within other collections.
As I said, it really takes a while to get your head around the best way to access elements in multi level scenarios but once you do that it is easy. Start with a simple collection first and then expand it using the debugger to find out the best ways to lay out your data. It's time well spent and the nice thing is you can traverse collections using the "for each <> in...." construction.
