[thelist] CF: Values transposition. Too ugly, needs a face lift.

I've written a custom tag that builds a tree based on values in my
database. It uses the typical parent/child scheme of record_id (parent) and
parent_record (child).
Because the tag uses attributes that refers to the db itself (such as
db_parent_field, db_child_field) I end up using a very inefficient manner
of getting at the value of said variables as such:
<cfset parent_field_value = Evaluate("get_current_items." & db_parent_field)>
<cfset parent_field_value = Evaluate(parent_field_value)>
Can anyone suggest a better way?
Please see http://www.frankmarion.com/demo/recurse.txt for the tag itself.
Do a find of "Ugly hack"
Thanks
