Access array by reference - how to?

Hi All,
This is almost certainly a silly question with an obvious answer... How do I access the elements of an array passed by address to a function?
I want to do something like this...
I found something like y := LONG[noparse][[/noparse]array_ptr+4] did work, but that seems rather long winded. What is the best way to read (and write) individual elements
from an address pointer?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Shane

VAR
LONG my_array
...
PUB MAIN
AccessArray(@my_array)
...
I want to access the array by reference-
This could be in a different cog...
PUB AccessArray(array_ptr) | x, y, z
x := array_ptr[noparse][[/noparse]0] ' Doesn't work
y := array_ptr '
z := array_ptr '
...
