Included variables: Flash MX

Okay. Right now in a program I have a function which calls another function and uses an array (which I get based on other variables) as a parameter.
Originally I had the array in the main program so I could do everything like this.

function whatever(){
someOtherFunction(_root[“SomeText”,varable]);
}

My problem is that I put the array into an external file (because I have numerous arrays) and used #include to bring in the variable. Now, the above code won’t work because it isn’t inside of _root. What do I need to replace _root with to have the program send a variable in the function?
I’m using Flash MX.

EDIT: I guess that in other words I just need to know what an included variable is stored into. Apparently it isn’t _root. Again, I got the variables by using #include “fileName.as”
