methods

I am new to this list and this question has probably come up on numerous
occasions but here goes...
 
I have made some definitions using methods> after a co-worker here told me
about them.
 
The "how to define a word that uses methods" is very easily figured out with
a quick look at the example definition for value. The problem however is
that I am unable to discover how those fetch and store methods work - if I
define a word "foo" with a fetch and a store method how do I actually fetch
the value within foo and store a new value therein? - is foo effectively a
value now? - do I just name foo to get its value and use 10 to foo to change
it ?
 
Thanx in advance...
