I'm not sure that I was completely clear on my
description.  As I go through the Dumper output, I
have a different name/entry for each occurence of the
{changing element name} element.  I'm looking for
recommendations regarding how to handle such
occurrences.  

I looked through the docs and have (to see the first
occurrence) tried in the code:

$data->{dataschemas}->{dataschema}->[0]->{attributes}->{attribute}}
and
$data->{dataschemas}->{dataschema}[0]->{attributes}->{attribute}}

Neither worked and I'm not sure from the XML::Simple
documentation what other options I have to identify
the varying element name in the code.
