How to read a _droptarget variable

Hi,
I’m doin’ a note training game, were you’re supposed to drop notes in the right places. To find out if you droped your note in the right place i figured that I would store a variable in each note that tells me which note I’m dragging. Now I want to compare that variable with the variable stored in each droptarget.

For example:
the note to be dragged’s variable: _root.a_mc.deNote = a;
the droptarget’s variable: _root.a_drop.dropNote = a;

when I now drop the “_root.a_mc” on the “_root.a_drop” I want to compare the two variables, and I thought that this was possible via _droptarget, but I cannot get access to the variable “_root.a_drop.dropNote”. I’ve tried the eval() function with no luck.

Does anyone know if this is possible and if so how?
