Is there a way to store the addresses of containers in a container and
have an iterator point to each of the containers in this container?
Example:
vector<stringcontainer_a, container_b, container_ix;
container_a and container_b would be stored in container_ix and an
iterator pointing to a position in container_ix to determine whether you
are looking at container_a or container_b.

Huh.
What is the problem you're trying to solve?
Ok, container_ix contains container_a and container_b:
container_ix.push_back(&container_a);
container_ix.push_back(&container_b);
itr=container_ix.begin();
while(itr!=container_ix.end())
{
// With the first pass, itr points to container_a.
// With the second pass, itr points to container_b.
itr++;
}
Of course this code doesn't work, but it gives (hopefully) an idea of
what I'm looking to try to do.

Huh, the code should work just fine. Provided, of course, you declare
container_ix correctly. Assuming
vector<stringcontainer_a, container_b;
that would be
vector< vector<string>* container_ix;

Ok, I glanced over the FAQ about posting.. didn't see anything. There
were several links that I visited and still didn't find it. I even did a
search. Came up with two results but off hand still didn't find
anything. I didn't post how I declared the container, didn't think of
that so if that was the problem sorry for any problems I'm causing.
I got the code to work, declared the iterator as follows:
vector<vector<string>*>::iterator itr;
It does hold the correct address of the container it's pointing to (like
a pointer should) but actually using it is still a problem. Using *itr
would work for a regular iterator.
I've googled for anything I could think of that would relate to what I'm
trying to do but it's like trying to find a needle in a hay stack, and I
haven't even found the needle yet - or if I'm looking up info correctly.

Just a guess (since I can't really understand your problem either) but
is your problem the fact that when you dereference iter such as this:
*iter
You can't use what is returned? In that case the solution is simple,
what *iter returns is a std::vector<string>* (a pointer to a vector of
strings, so you have to dereference that pointer too: *(*iter), or when
calling one of the vector's methods: (*iter)->begin().
