Question on sudoers syntax

I'm sure you guys will know the answer to this straight away; is it
possible to give a specific user access to a specific directory?  I
would rather not change the directory permission or user/group ownership
of the directory (nor can I make the user a group member of the current
directory owner); it's not possible to predict the name of the files
that the application creates, only where the files will be; my goal is
to give a specific group of users the ability to do a directory listing
of a specific directory as well as permissions to more or cat any file
in that directory (again, the file name is not know, only the
directory); when I was presented with this, it sounded like something
for sudoers; while I could put together a script that the users can run,
I was hoping that I could just put this into sudoers.  Any ideas?
Thanks very much.

Aaron
