Hi,
the problem is not that it doesn't work. The problem is, that the parts
of # you want to acces doesn't exist (except for the first one #[[1]]).
Therefore,
example = {1, 5, 7, 9};
Table[#[[i]], {i, example}]
works as expected. Without knowing what you want to do it's quite hard
to help you here.
Cheers
Patrick
