Hmm, this still seems strange, AFAIK, Rails sanitizes form input. Are you  
sure you aren't circumventing what the Rails framework provides? A more  
concise approach would be to let ActiveRecord do its magic if possible.

Anyhoo, you can still iterate over the data if for some strange reason the  
request parameter parser uses symbols like that as keys, e.g.:

for i in (1..10)
   do_stuff_with(params[:Data][i.to_s.to_sym])
end

Anyways, more context wouldn't hurt, but if the above does the trick, fine  
as well.
